Okay, now that I've watched the trailer for the new Spider-Man movie multiple times, as well as a couple detailed break-down videos, my excitement for it is at an all time high. It's a long four months between now and when it is released. However, that then makes me wonder if I will see its release in the theater or not. With COVID numbers still on the rise, I have already decided that I will not Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings at the theater. We made a similar decision for the Black Widow movie, and while I enjoyed the movie, it was a bit of a let-down (although that could be because they gave Taskmaster the Wolverine-Origin-Deadpool treatment).
I love watching movies in the theater. Sure, there are downsides, but the experience between theater and home theater do not measure up. I am also concerned that not voting with my theater tickets might start making studios move away from making the movies that I personally enjoy.
That, and I get movie popcorn (no microwave version comes close).
Perhaps the situation will be different in four months, but that certainly does not seem likely. It is far more likely that we will order a couple of movies on premium access and watch Spider-Man at home even though I am not a fan of that business practice. I certainly won't want to wait until it comes out on DVD.
