Excellent points. Sad to see the decrease in theaters and their rapid going out of business. What do you think of the large increase in home theaters and cinema becoming more luxurious in order to survive?

If someone has the resources to create a good home theater experience I think you can have a pretty good experience of "cinema" at home. I don't mind the trend towards more "luxury" theaters either, is I'm going to spend $15+ for a ticket it's nice if the seats are very comfortable haha. I think we'll see more of this kind of thing post-COVID to since there will be less emphasis on packing out big theaters with as many people as possible.

I agree, the industry is changing so rapidly. I think the money is not heading towards “cinema” as an artwork unfortunately. But I also am happy about how accessible cinema is becoming and how much easier it is becoming for people to make their own films.
