ELI5: Why does seemingly every movie theater in existence have smaller concession stands on either side of theater, but put them out of commission 3 months into opening? I'd rather like to use one of those mid-movie rather than walking up to the front.

They are there for really really packed days. Doesn't make sense to have them open on regular or even normal busy days because it takes extra staff to run them. But weekends with 3 or 4 major openings you'll see those stations open.
