BiBottomBoy Posted December 14, 2020 Posted December 14, 2020 They were supposed to open up movie theaters tomorrow. Now that's been put off until January 20th. I really wanted to see Free Guy Quote
TotallyOz Posted December 14, 2020 Posted December 14, 2020 I have been going to movies in Thailand for a few months. It is nice. Still very quiet and 1/2 the seat not available. But, it is nice to see a movie. Quote
BiBottomBoy Posted December 14, 2020 Author Posted December 14, 2020 Last movie I saw in the theater was Birds Of Prey - one week before the theaters were shut down. Quote
Members JKane Posted December 19, 2020 Members Posted December 19, 2020 Me too, but shit's gotten real serious in LA/California this month, so even if I could, I wouldn't be doing anything. Lucky 1 Quote
BiBottomBoy Posted December 19, 2020 Author Posted December 19, 2020 here they've installed a new HVAC system in the movie theater. It's supposed to be safer covid wise than going to the grocery store and back. Quote
Members Deadlift Posted December 20, 2020 Members Posted December 20, 2020 You can watch any movie u want by renting out one of the theaters here. You are limited to 25 people and it costs about $125 to $150. Everything in concession stand is 1/2 price. You can even rent older titles or your own copy of a favorite. Seats recline and are heated. It is a new chain that opened here about 6 months before pandemic hit. Tonight was Elf! Quote
Members BigK Posted December 20, 2020 Members Posted December 20, 2020 I've always been an avid movie goer. Oddly I haven't missed seeing movies in the Theater. Probably because owning an essential business I've been so busy working. Had a mild case of Covid-19 a couple of months ago. Recently been especially busy with multiple employees out with Covid.

Members RockHardNYC Posted December 20, 2020 Members Posted December 20, 2020 I probably see too many movies. Always have. But I no longer enjoy viewing most of them in an actual theater. It's not that I don't enjoy a large screen experience. I do. But I don't enjoy large crowds. I don't enjoy strangers sitting directly next to me. I don't enjoy obnoxious people who talk loud and check their Instagrams every ten minutes. I don't enjoy the ear-blasting sound. I don't enjoy bad previews for too often very bad movies. I absolutely HATE commercials on a theater screen. I can't remember the last time I ate concession food at a theater. Not going to happen. I prefer the comfort of my own home theater. I support the industry move to home/theater release at the same time. I think it would be great for business. For movies that I enjoy, I watch them again with subtitles to take in all the words.

BiBottomBoy Posted December 21, 2020 Author Posted December 21, 2020 RockHard, I go to the wednesday matinee or the early sunday show and generally there's about 15 other people in the theater with me so noise and other people aren't a problem. Quote
Members Imdan Posted December 21, 2020 Members Posted December 21, 2020 Havent been to the movies for ages. Last time was 2018, I believe. Quote
