Comment written by cirrus3 Checks out ;) We’re in the midst of a once in a century pandemic. The best movie theater in Seattle has been closed since the beginning of 2020 and may never reopen. I have way better food, and far cheaper drinks at home. I don’t have to pay ridiculous amounts of money to park. I don’t have to wear a KN-95 mask to feel safe. I can pet my dog while I watch the movie. I can rewatch scenes when I feel like missed something delightfully subtle, like I just did earlier tonight with Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch. I can pause the movie to go use the bathroom whenever I want to. Sure, there are plenty of movies that benefit from a fantastic theater experience. But I’m not going to get that right now, especially in the city I live in. Maybe I’m just an old man yelling at clouds, or maybe it just isn’t ever worth going to a theater to watch Hangover, Part 3 or whatever. Go watch The Batman in a theater if you want to. I’m not telling you how to live your life.
