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 stay 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 sold out theatre.
