Yes, but I haven't been to one for the last 25 years. :)
The convenience and comfort of a home TV system capable of playing movies on
tape or disc has taken over completely. I tried cable and satellite but
prefer DVDs. I did the rental thing for VHS tapes then DVDs for a long time,
but now it's just Netflix.
Movie theaters are outmoded. Nobody goes anymore!
