I'd figure during the pandemic when things were shut down they'd put up some cash for a construction crew and do a nice renovation/remodel. Nope. Next closest place is a small 2-screen independent place where if you blink, you'll probably miss the movie you want to see. Only have films for a week or two then move on to something else. It sucks because I can always count on the movie theater as a place to escape and relax for a couple hours. I guess now staying at home with the small screen and microwave popcorn is the new normal.

You can get a pretty decent setup for a fairly decent cost, IMO. I just recently got a Dolby Atmos capable surround sound system ($300-$400 can't remember) and it has changed EVERYTHING.


Agree with Destor, and I too love going to the theatre.
