"Sony Projector Malfunctions Lead to Widespread Closures at Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas"

TL;DR Summary
Alamo Drafthouse experienced a 'nationwide' outage attributed to Sony projector failures, leading to the temporary closure of five theaters and the cancellation or reorganization of several movie screenings. The issue seemed to be resolved by the following day, with most screenings back online, although the exact cause of the problem remains unclear.
