The cost of prints isn't insignificant and it's better to have them standing in line for the first weekend and add theaters the second or third week. I think they call it platforming and that IS how "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" was released as well. It started on a few screens in a few cities and got good reviews, good word of mouth advertising, etc. and then they started adding screens. It actually ended up playing for a YEAR in a couple of cities.
