Getting back to the movies

 It has been quite sometime since my last post, I have been riding the up and down emotional rollercoaster as half this country I am sure has. Originally when the shutdown occurred back in March it hit me hard as I was used to going to movies two or three times a week and being stuck at home I was depressed, the thing that makes me happiest outside of my family was gone, going to the movies is my escape from work life and my therapy. Then when things started to get open, I found solace in a local art house theater that was open and eventually my AMC Theatre reopened. Of course it was all down to independent films and the stuff studios did not want to spend the time and energy on rescheduling, which is fine just every now and then its nice to have that big crowded theater blockbuster. I am one that actually enjoys the audience experience and listening to reactions then hearing the conversations as people walk down the stairs to exit. The next blow to my psyche was I wanted to convert our sunroom into a home theater, I had grand visions and plans to make this work, until it came down to execution. That is when I discovered how small the room actually was, how hard it would be and expensive to totally black out the room, that concept morphed into what it is now a place to put our computer desk and a craft space or my wife. Losing the theater room was a hit to me and then the talks of theater bankruptcies and the continual delaying of movies to next year and more being pushed straight to digital. Being home as much as I have been lately and just working non-stop I have had several ideas popping into my head where I want to talk my film loving career to, unfortunately given the state of the world none are feasible at this time, I have tried to start other avenues and just do not have the motivation to get them going right now, hopefully next year that will change. For now I decided to just jump back on here and do what I know, the best I can. So here we go...LAISSE LES FILMS ROULER...Let the films roll!
