What is this "theater" you speak of?   The entire WB release is free on HBOmax.   Theatre is dead, long live the max.   The future is now.

It is not looking good for theaters but I hope you are wrong.  I love the theater experience.

We just finished rewatching the first Matrix and it really holds up.  The cinematography in-particular is still amazing.  The newer HD print HBO has is also very sharp.

So what part of the theatre experience do you enjoy exactly?   Getting raped over the cost of tickets and food, being annoyed by everyone else or having to leave one's home and schedule a time to watch a movie?  Get a good surround sound system and a big tv... the theatre "experience" has been better at home for decades now. 

I still don't get the matrix love.   The film had a pretty basic plot and the visuals are 100% meh.   I mean cowboy curtis was pretty good in it but the rest of the cast couldn't act their way out of a paper bag.

I particularly enjoy the experience of seeing a blockbuster with a bunch of other fans.  Most recently seeing Spider-Man no way home on opening night with my family was fantastic.  Having the crowd around you really into a movie is priceless. 

If theaters go away I don't see studios spending big money on blockbusters for streaming.  Most of the great at-home streaming opportunities we got this year were anomalies because of Covid.  No way that continues without big box-office revenue.
fallacy:
Matrix was a great movie and I don’t like 90% of movies. They messed up when they made Neo all powerful at the end, all good Shonen anime only has the protagonist increase his power by a little so they can have future adventures and new bosses to fight. I also did not like the way the agents could never die and be everywhere, kind of deflated any reason to fight them.
