When movie theaters open back up will you go?

[KayJay1971 238]

My company distributes to a lot of movie theaters. We just got word that they should start opening up at the end of June through the end of July. Assuming nothing changes will you go to see a movie? If not would you at some point? I have to assume several seats will be blocked off to observe social distancing. I was not much of a theater guy but I would go if a "must see" movie is released soon after they reopen. Top Gun II anyone?

[Drizzay 645]

Probably not.  Although I should point out that I go to maybe one movie every three years.

[posty 2,296]

No...  Rarely went to the movies before this happened, this won't change...  I would rather wait until the movie comes out on cable if I want to see it...

[supermike80 1,285]

Hell yes.  I miss movies.  But what the heck is available to see?  Is the new Top Gun completed?

[Bier Meister 1,513]

We do not go out to see many movies per year.  When they re-open, and if there is a movie I would want to see..... It depends. What measures will be taken to prevent more spread? how many people in the theater/spacing?  etc

From a virus/health perspective, I'd go see one right now and sit next to an 80 year old from a NY nursing home.  I'm not scared of this thing at all, as I believe most shouldn't be.  But I've been putting together a home theater for the last 8 months and, as of last weekend, it's better than 95% of the theaters out there.  Other than content, which is usually delayed for home viewing, I'd rather watch in my basement.  I hope the direct to home model keeps gaining traction.

This, except maybe once a year for me.

Eventually but probably not until next year unless some different news comes out that lowers my concerns.

I am not terribly concerned about this virus either as I am pretty confident I was at the very least exposed to it (very good friend had all of the symptoms but wasn't able to get tested). I battled something pretty strong in January as well as my wife. I just don't go see that many movies. When the bars and wineries open back up....I will be there in a heartbeat.

Yup...I'll go 

[TommyGavin 788]

Hell no I won’t go. Hell no I won’t go. 
 

I didn’t go before. So no. Avatar was last movie I saw in a theater. 

[vuduchile 1,941]

We didn’t go much before Coronaids. No reason to change.  

[dain11279 927]

I miss the popcorn

[NorthernVike 2,080]

Yep, I'll go.  Hell, I drove over to North Dakota today and went out for lunch, dine in, and stopped at a bar for a couple of beers.  This isn't the end of the world,  start living people.

Here's how stupid the dumbfuck governor of minny is,  Campgrounds are closed.  The best possible way to social distance is not allowed.
