I am a big movie fan. I watched about 30 movies in theatres in 2019, in IMAX or in a Dolby theatre if available.
I haven’t watched any movies in the theatre in 2020, and I don’t plan to go until it’s prudent. If i could rent an IMAX theatre for a reasomable sum that’d be tempting but part of the fun is crowds. And anyway, most movies I have been looking forward to (Black Widow, Wonder Woman 1984) were pushed out.
I feel like I can just roll with whatever and adapt to new realities as needed. There are plenty of new, enjoyable hobbies away from crowds I can pick up. For one, I’ve been learning a new language, using a combination of textbooks and free apps. I have become a more flexible cook (substituting whatever is on hand due to less frequent grocery trips). I can cut my hair using only clippers and a mirror (though I started getting haircuts outdoors in July). I keep in touch with a wider areay of friends using Zoom, email and messaging.
