I went to see Thunderbolts* yesterday, didn’t buy online or anything like that, just walked straight up to the counter bought tickets, drinks and popcorn, then walked into the theatre.
There was no one else around, maybe 15 people in the whole screening. I don’t understand how the cinemas start open when they are this dead.
I remember 10 years ago the line for just getting into the theatre for the latest Marvell movie would wrap around the building and that was after buying your tickets.
It’s been a long time since I was in a solid out theatre.

it also benefits the technoligarchs if they strip any connection we have to eachother, culturally. it’s better for them if we get in and out of the theater without discussing what the propaganda meant to us. it helps them create an environment where we all live isolated in a media bubble all our own. there we’re more easily manipulated. the most right wing podcasts like the joe rogan experience being spotify exclusive isn’t a wreckless thing from spotify. it’s planned and on purpose. first they isolate your media pipeline, then they make their pool of content more right wing than anyone else’s, then they ensure the people hooked on the jre can’t go anywhere else for it where they’d encounter other media outside their understanding of the world,
