Disney slapped on some pretty onerous requirements if theaters wanted to show The Last Jedi. Three of them: increased Disney's box office cut above traditional, requires multiplex to show it on their largest screen, requires multiplex to show up it for four consecutive weeks regardless of audience size in later weeks. There are many other requirements including agreement to financial penalties for lack of compliance.
