Private poll. Just curious.
I had it so I'm good right?
When there's a vaccine.
Just because...
The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
Petite maman (CĂ©line Sciamma, 2021) mild
The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild
The last book I read was...
The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain
The (New) World
When there's a vaccine.
But I've mentally prepared myself for the likelihood that PVOD and streaming are the future, and theaters are never coming back because COVID is never going away.

I would go to a small theater near me in 2021 and only that theater.
If there's right practices in place, and people are told to wear masks (most important part), I'll go.
As soon as this goddamn semester finishes. Theaters are all still open here and people don't act like selfish idiots.

Yeah, I'd like to stress that I believe everything The Who says and I'm not minimizing the virus in any way... but I'll go as soon as I can, assuming they take proper security measures.
This is me, though. I'm aware the majority of the people have other priorities.
EDIT: I hadn't seen the poll. I voted 2021 because I don't see it happening sooner anyway, at least not in Argentina.

Same (I assume you are the other one voting for the top choice). We here are not as efficient in government measures as in South Korea. But our general population made up for whatever shoddiness the government handles this with, and now our few reported new cases nowadays are only people coming from abroad (I'm still slightly suspicious about the officials maybe downplaying the gravity/number, but at least our media, both social and press, is equally as suspicious and will jump on any new development). Theaters are open for a few weeks now and I'm waiting my workload to decrease before I go back to watch something. Funny thing (considering what prompts this poll) is, Nolan's Batman trilogy in IMAX is the first thing that makes me want to do it.Quoting transmogrifier (view post)

How come there's no option for When Tran's semester finishes?
When Top Gun 2 opens I guess
When there's a vaccine.
I feel like any other answer is pretty foolish.

Maybe. It's likely you get some period of immunity after an infection (people do develop antibodies), but it's unclear how long that lasts. And unfortunately the best way to figure this out is to follow infected people over time, monitor their antibodies, and see if they get infected again. If it works like the regularly circulating coronaviruses that cause the common cold - of which there are four - then the immunity will be temporary. That's why you've had probably a dozen or more colds in your life.Quoting Skitch (view post)
If I were living in an area where testing was free and easily available for anyone who wanted it, the community incidence was very low despite lots of testing, and safety measures were still in place in the theater, then I might consider it if it was a special circumstance. Going to the theater hasn't been a big priority for me for years.
Knowing Skitch, he probably developed super powers after covid. Like in between posts, that motherfucker sticks to walls and x-ray visions his neighbor's house and runs around Ohio solving crime and putting mobsters in jail.
I seriously would not put it past him.
Shut up asshole! I got kids and shit. My enemies will discover who I am.
I believe Skitch may have developed super powers after COVID. Unfortunately, knowing Ohio, I don't think he's doing cool shit like putting mobsters in jail. More likely, the best he can do is identify farmers who are not rotating their crops properly, and busting kids who are toilet papering houses.
I also heard Skitch is the primary force behind renaming Columbus to "Flavortown."
God bless him.
You fuckers are gonna get me killed.

Skitch may have superpowers, but they all go away in a three-mile radius of any movie theater. People will crowd him. Drowned out by the noise of cell phones, chatter, and kids' pitter-patter... It weakens him, gives him nightmares and breaks his focus.
That's true. His arch-enemy is Professor Nolan, a mad studio mogul who resents Skitch's new found powers and is hell bent on re-opening multiplexes around the country.
If you think I'm having Tenet ruined by a theater experience, you are wrong. I will watch it at home.
So theaters are Skitch's kryptonite, and Nolan is Skitch's Lex Luthor? I'm on board! Someone write a pilot!
Also, Flavortown? I mean, I dig that name, but if I was gonna pick someone to name the city after it'd be Simone Fucking Biles.
