Movie theaters in California are open now, but with reduced capacity. You are required to wear a mask while watching the movie, although you are allowed to remove it while eating or drinking.
I was never a big movie theater patron even before COVID, and I haven’t been to a theater in well over a year now. The thought of having to wear a mask for two hours while watching a movie just doesn’t appeal to me. It’s too easy to watch movies at home now on Netflix.
The theaters were shut down for essentially a full year during the pandemic. It’s hard to imagine how these businesses will ever fully recover from that. And the studios have lost their venue for releasing big budget films for the past year, so they have been impacted significantly as well.
Are you going to the theater to watch movies again or have you permanently altered your preferences for movie viewing as a result of the pandemic?
