Some Folks Are Excited
Genuinely excited to watch In The Heights, Space Jam 2, Matrix 4, and Suicide-Squad-But-Good-This-Time from the comfort of my blanket fort. https://t.co/3CTWkg4JMF

Some Aren’t Having It
Imagine wanting to see a film called Godzilla Vs Kong for the first time on your TV.

Big Screen Moments
I personally want to wait until this is over so I can cry my eyes out when I see The Matrix 4 title appear on a giant movie theater screen https://t.co/THnK6weuzd

You Have to Laugh
Cannot wait for GODZILLA VS KONG VS MY KID ASKING IF HE CAN HAVE GRAHAM CRACKERS VS THE PHONE RINGING VS MY KID SAYING “BUT CAN I WATCH POKEMON IN THE OTHER ROOM” VS BUFFERING

…or Not
me after breaking into my local abandoned movie theatre to hallucinate Dune 2 on the big screen as a metal bar from the collapsing ceiling falls and crushes my skull, killing me instantly pic.twitter.com/OoaA67JE4b

So Many Jokes
Dune worm apparently too big to be shown on the big screen, won’t be in theaters until they make a bigger screen

The Price Factor
The Suicide Squad, Matrix 4, Mortal Kombat & more all drop on release day on HBO MAX??? At no extra cost????

Depends on the Movie
I love going to the movies, but I donโt have to see everything on the big screen. So, the option to see new movies on HBO Max the same day works for me.

But when it comes to WW84, Dune, Suicide Squad, Godzilla vs. Kong and Matrix 4? You betcha Iโm seeing those in theaters.
Luckily, Batman Is 2022
Iโll be watching suicide squad, Godzilla and mortal kombat in my living room๐๐พโบ๏ธ

But I have to watch the new Batman movie in the theaters… THATS A MUST https://t.co/moKq1BuZba
Compromise For Safety
The thing is if I can safely see DUNE and THE SUICIDE SQUAD and MATRIX 4 in a theater I donโt care if itโs on my TV. Iโm going anyway because I want to see these movies HUGE. But yeah for the time being this will be a good compromise. Because again: SAFETY
