      It doesn’t help that the entire cinema industry is artificially propped up with exclusivity agreements.

      That practice should be ended and allow the cinema industry to contract to a niche thing that people go-to for the experience like it should be.

      What happened to the Free Market™️ determining such things??

      I’ve actually been going a lot more. When you go to a smaller movie that’s been out for a week you basically have the place to yourself. My small local theater recently replaced all the seating with recliners which is a real treat. I’ve really come to appreciate just sitting in a dark room free of distractions (kids jumping around their room before bed, a dog that wants over and under the blankets constantly, my wife’s phone). The theater is my little getaway.
