I'm jealous of your prices. I would go see a movie every week to support you if I were near.

Someone else can answer more technically than I can, but it's because it is incredibly difficult to launch from a planet. To get off of Earth, we need several stages of rockets. To land safely on another planet, we need more rockets. If we wanted to have a return trip, we would likely need several more stages of rockets (even taking into account that Mars is much easier to blast off from than Earth).
This brings up the issue that the more weight you are taking off with, the more power you need to make it happen. To launch from earth into space with only enough fuel and equipment for a one way trip is already incredibly difficult. To do so with the intent of returning (think hundreds of tons more fuel and rockets) will make the initial launch that much more difficult.
I don't know that we have the technology to make it either possible or even pseudo-affordable right now.

You seem like a film-lover yourself, so how do you feel about the 3D trend in the past few years, both from a theatre owner's perspective and from a cinemaphile's perspective? Do you try to avoid showing 3d films?

If Mr. Offerman doesn't answer you can take these questions to /r/woodworking. They'll be able to answer your questions, I think.
