Doubtless they're all broken up about that. On the plus side, it frees up the theater to screen something that'll actually sell tickets.
If you read the article it says they were showing it as a joke because there was nothing else to show at the moment. I doubt it was ever going to make them much money though, so perhaps they can just give the employees next week off instead.
