Myself during the pandemic I was really turned off by the idea they were going to keep doing concessions the way they usually did because the idea of a popcorn and coke mess would turn my stomach. Since then I've seen Barbie and Superman and it was cool but I'm not in a rush to see more movies in a theater. We were worried that the chain theater in town was going to go out of business because it had been leveraged by an Israeli company just before the crisis. The art house theater downtown is starting to show those tentpole movies but the art house movies in the trailers seem all the same to me and don't catch my eye. If they wanted to get me in they should have shown Ne Zha 2. The big chain theater is actually getting interesting because they show all kinds of unusual thing such as live opera performances, anime movies, etc. Just can't see it beating streaming though, also I think somehow television has outpaced movies in terms of the scope of stories it can tell. I find it so boring that they keep making three-packs of superhero movies and then reboot and tell the origin story over and over again, one thing I liked about the latest Superman was that they didn't retell his journey from Krypton and his upbringing in farm country but just jumped into it -- I mean, Superman has been around 87 years we know his origin story. In a TV show they couldn't get away with rehashing the origin story and the first few books over and over again -- I could care less if Spiderman was bit by a radioactive spider or a GMO spider, I just want to seem him slinging webs and punching bad guys and mostly being loved by the community and occasionally feared.
