It has been a long time coming, but finally we are seeing many theaters that are or will soon be reopening and announcing their upcoming schedules.

The Covid-19 Delta variant continues to wreak havoc on us, but there have been few new restrictions placed on us in spite of it.

California had fully reopened and removed all capacity limits and physical distancing requirements regardless of setting, but now we have a new Covid-19 variant that is wreaking havoc on us, the Delta variant.

Case rates are still high but seem to be on a steady decline overall, and […]

The downward trend in Covid cases continues, and vaccinations are in full swing for eligible groups of people, giving us more hope for the future.
