Somehow the word "selfish" enters my mind! Am I being too harsh? What happened to,"we are our brother's keeper"?

How can anyone wear a mask while eating popcorn? What you are saying is that people should continue to wear masks while eating in a restaurant. It is not going to happen. Being DISTANCED from others is what needs to be done in a movie theater and restaurants.

I have been one of the biggest proponents for wearing masks ever since this pandemic began. I am still a huge proponent of wearing a mask. Having said that, I will not wear a mask in a movie theater if I am DISTANCED from everyone else and I am munching on popcorn. Sorry if you feel I'm selfish, but I do not agree with you.

PS...... I do not wear a mask in a restaurant when I'm eating or drinking either.

Hi GE. I've missed you. Good to "see" you again.

I'm the REAL coffeebean and no, I haven't been kidnapped. LOL.

I still continue to wear a mask when I'm in public indoor spaces. BUT, having said that, in a movie theater, being distanced from others, I will not wear a mask while munching on popcorn (to me, that's the same as dining in a restaurant).

You know I'm still a huge proponent of masking and that has not changed. Time, place and circumstance is all I'm stressing.

You have the golden ticket on the train that leaves others behind. Newly rich people often do NOT go back to their old neighborhoods to sponsor charities.

Your time will come. Hubby is waiting for his vaccinations but he isn't even in the current eligible group so who knows when that will be. It's a waiting game so we sit and wait.

i recall being the only person at this showing at old mill playhouse in 2005 and it was very unnerving. Still recall that jennifer carpenter did a great job in the role of emily rose.

For all movie goers:
Regal pointe orlando with it's 6 story high movie ?????? Screen and acoustics is a marvel.
Parking next door is validated inside the theater. There's an elevator and wonderful restaurants nearby as well as nice, reasonable hotel rooms. The screen is so immense that i have found myself scanning several locations on it as fast as i could.
Here's to better days for us all.

Yes, I would if I were governor for a period of a few months until the war with CV is won - and not a minute before. These half-measure, baby steps are just incompetent "happy talk". Otherwise, we will be living with CV for the rest of our (older types) lives. We could have stopped CV cold even WITHOUT vaccines. In fact, we have so much disease in the US that it may be too late to stop it for everybody right now. Not everyone is lucky enough to have 2 shots in their bodies - and without everybody without CV, then no one is safe. Not even a 2 shot person. Too early to celebrate and do a victory dance! Nothing personal!

A restaurant is NOT essential to life! And can cause death. Why play Russian roulette with an EVOLVING pandemic?

I thought all along I have had a hard nosed POV on mitigating this virus with mandating masking and social distancing. You have certainly surpassed what I feel are necessary measures. I applaud you but I'm certain many small businesses and restaurants would not go along with being shuttered all this time.
