Back in the saddle again.
A list here we come.
But our favorite theater is a bit further (bought a house out in the burbs) to get to (it has Dolby and imax) but we are closer to 2 pretty standard theaters.
With the massive amount of movies coming out I'm sure there will be a few we see at these standard theaters since you can't have all Dolby all the time.
But I'm excited as hell to get back to it.

In the Heights in theatres June 11th. thebtskink gave it 5-stars. Doomsday said, “I wish West Side Story was this good.” Dracula raved, “Lin Manuel Miranda is a true generational talent.” The PG Cooper Podcast says, “Not since Demon Slayer has a movie made me cum so hard.”

I went twice this weekend for both Cruella and A Quiet Place Part II. Even though I'm fully vaccinated, I had a mask on both times and both times, I'd say it was about 50/50 between mask-wearers and non, yeah. All the non-wearers were people who had snacks, but still.

My mistress works for the board of directors of a certain company and they’ve been getting “threats” ever since the CDC removed the mask policy. So basically, the anti-maskers have been bitching & moaning for a year and now it’s the pro-maskers turn. How about we all... I don’t know... just stay home.

If non-vaccinated people want to go in without masks and risk getting it, then they're only hurting themselves. As much as I've missed movie theater popcorn over the past year, being responsible by still wearing a mask when going to the movies seems like a fair and simple condition of getting back into theaters.

The nice thing about Arclight was that it should only one, maaaaybe two previews before the feature. That's it, roll film. Kinda the opposite of AMC's almost half an hour of bullshit.

Still, there will be a lot of people in those new AMCs grinding their teeth when they hit their 8th trailer in a row.

Plan accordingly, at least 30 minutes from start time.
I feel the same way about the national anthem at sporting events, plan my entrance accordingly.

This is why I prefer Alamo Drafthouse. They have a pre-show that starts 30 minutes before the film starts, but it's not just a bunch of ads for Sprite, reality TV shows and other paid content. It's stuff that actually relates to the feature film. For example, when they show an MCU movie, they always do a recap of the entire MCU.

Well the popcorn didn't taste as good as I remember and the salt packets are trash (gimme a shaker!) but went on discount Tuesday and place was still pretty dead.
Hoping f9 can really get em supercharged.
On the plus side though my local theater is renovating the bar area so all the beers are downstairs at concessions. Nice and easy to grab it all together.
I have basically a full month of a list that was pro rated from when I paused mine last year so my billing date isn't for another 3 weeks.
Cruella was... Pretty Disney. Lotta yanks taking on British accents tho which I fucking love.

I don't even know what's coming out in the next few months, our theaters are just starting to open back up again. F9, nope. Free Guy, obligatory. Not sure what else I want to see.

We all know the only movie worth seeing this year is Snake Eyes: GI Joe Origins.
