So, things have been pretty crazy lately, huh?
As some of you may have noticed, my productivity on this blog has slowed to a crawl. This is for a myriad of personal reasons, but recently that crawl has slowed into a near halt. As I'm sure you're all aware, the United States (and most of the world for that matter) has been put under quarantine to slow down the spread of COVID-19, AKA the Coronavirus. This has affected many people's lives, and since part of that quarantine is discouraging large public gatherings, several businesses have been negatively impacted, including my own. Several movies that were slated for a March or April release date, up to and including A Quiet Place Part II, Mulan and The New Mutants have been postponed indefinitely, and press screenings have likewise been cancelled. Because of this, and financial strains due to my day job also being impacted by the quarantine, I will not be able to go see any new movies for the time being.
But in the meantime, in order to keep this blog going and maintain my own sanity, I will try my best to expand upon my comfort zone and try new things. There have been some ideas that I've been spinning around in my head for a while but never got around to, and I think this would be a good time to get started on that. A year ago I made the promise of a new blog series called "I Fucking Love This Movie", something that never came to light. I'd also love to expand upon my love of so-bad-it's-good movies in some capacity, as a certain entry in my best of the decade list understandably left some people confused. (If you read it, you know exactly what I'm talking about.) Hopefully I can use this time to get these projects off the ground.
Thank you all for being so understanding. In the meantime, stay safe, stay healthy, wash your hands, take care of yourself, and more importantly, take care of each other.
Sincerely, Graham Kristensen, AKA Man In The Movie Theater.
