Because the only reason to see a movie in the theater is to experience something bigger than you can on your home setup.

Dune, Nolan films, blockbusters, etc. demand a “biggest screen you can find” experience.

As good as something looks “Poor Things” was… it does not… and so rather than picking a smaller screen, folks just wait for home release.

The exception is Alamo Drafthouse.

Because their experiences are so lovingly and uniquely crafted for each film… I will see any movie I can that isn’t a Dune/Nolan/etc. movie there.
