how many of u have seen a move in a theater or is that going by the wayside?

8. I was just this morning debating going to see a movie this afternoon.

Likely it will be the new one with Robert DeNiro, Ezra, which has decent numbers on Rotten Tomatoes.

When I was a teen, for reasons I don't really recall, I began a journal of sorts to record each and every movie I went to see. I have forty-plus years of my movie-going activities documented in some detail. I can tell you the precise date and time that I saw Back to the Future, or the name of the theater I was in to see Ocean's 11, or who was with me to view Get Out. Sometimes I'll look at the list and marvel at the names of past girlfriends/dates/partners and friends, many of whom I haven't seen in years if not decades. I remember the Saturday afternoons watching Siskel and Ebert's At the Movies, often minutes before heading out for the evening to see a movie they'd just reviewed.

I love the theater experience, despite the occasional ass-hat who's fiddling with their phone or the airport concession pricing. And, as long as I am able and the doors are open, I'll be there.
