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 am between three small town cinemas in the UK. Thankfully we don't get a lot of talking or bright phones etc at any of them and they are all pretty good, with talks before or after the film, local films, silent films with live music, arts events etc. so we do go to the more interesting things like that, but for run-of-the-mill blockbusters or whatever, I'm far happier staying at home and waiting.
