Who these days are still going to indoor theaters?
Disabled children with parents in Jacksonville, NC, apparently.
They’re going out of business anyway. There are some silver linings in this massive dark cloud. They charge too much for popcorn and sodas. F em. Drive in theaters will make a come back. That way my wife and I can make out in the back of our truck.
We went in August when things opened up. It’s a small town one screen theater. People who came in together were seated next to each other, but we were told to sit with a row between us and at least 3 seats from the other group. So it was socially distanced. People wore masks when they weren’t munching on goodies. I would say attendance was maybe 15-20% of the usual. We were trying to do our part towards keeping our little theater opened.

That is an excellent question.
Based on this story, I’m guessing it’s families with small children who want to see the new child-friendly movie. Now that drive-ins are a thing of the past...

I would, if there were any close by showing something I’d like to see.
