This week, we talk about the movie theater experience, how it's evolved over the past 30 or so years, and some interesting ways movie theaters could entice people to start coming back out to the cinemas in droves. Along the way, we recount some of our memorable experiences in movie theaters, sneaking in our own concessions, and the first time we went to the movies alone!
