I used to visit the movie theater (before coronavirus) but now, I seem to lose interest as apparently people have lost etiquette or public courtesy on communal spaces (from using their phone with max brightness, speaking loudly whilst the movie is playing), is it just me feeling this way? I'm like "it'll eventually be re-released on disc or shown on a streaming site soon" (I wouldn't be surprised if coronavirus accelerated the decline of cinemas).

I talk during movies so I like watching at home. If I do go see it in theaters I go well after the release when the theaters mostly empty. I don’t go on busy opening days.

Edit: I should say before people jump down my throat for ever talking in a theater at all. I have severe adhd, like I was in textbooks and training videos severe. I can’t take medicine for it because it nerfs my appetite completely and I start to starve.

Not making comments here and there for a a couple hour period is not possible but I still have a right to exist in society. I’m reasonable enough to not show up on opening nights, but if you show up on a Wednesday morning three weeks after a film came out… you’re just going to have to deal with me sometimes. I don’t know what to tell you.
