Spaces where the big screen once lit the faces of attentive viewers fell dark and silent, to sit lifeless for months.

Now, most states are allowing 100 percent occupancy in movie theaters; however, this does not mean movie-goers are rushing back to theaters. What is there to attract them? Some of the most anticipated new movies had their 2020 premiere dates pushed to middle or late 2021, with some even transitioning directly to streaming platforms like HBO. On top of the lack of content, theaters are …
