CineMmrk is hoping to be back in business by July 10th. Before they completely open their doors nationwide, they will be doing a test run starting on June 19th at five of their theaters in Texas.
They are doing this to find how the new safety measures, due to Coronavirus, will work. One of the measures is that all of their employees will be required to wear masks, but the patrons will not.
However, according to Deadline, they will be using “seat buffering technology” to make sure that the audience will be social distancing. What that means? We do not know.
What it means for me, is that I will stick with drive-in theaters. I don’t want to sit a cold dark room with strangers who are not wearing masks. One popcorn kernel goes down the wrong pipe, and I will Netflix and have the chills.
Do you feel comfortable going back to the movies if the theaters don’t require everyone to wear masks?
On Monday, Lea Michele’s Glee co-star Samantha Marie Ware called out Rachel Berry for making her life ‘a living hell’ on the musical dramedy. After Ware sent out the tweet, several co-stars including Alex Newell and Amber Riley confirmed that Michele made their lives hell too.
This morning, after losing a sponsorship deal with HelloFresh, Michele wrote a length apology:
One of the most important lessons of the last few weeks is that we need to take the time to listen and learn about other people’s perspectives and any role we have played or anything we can do to help address the injustices that they face. When I tweeted the other day, it was meant to be a show of support for our friends and neighbors and communities of color during this really difficult time, but the responses I received to what I posted have made me also focus specifically on how my own behavior towards fellow cast members was perceived by them.
While I don’t remember ever making this specific statement and I have never judged others by their background or color of their skin, that’s not really the point, what matters is that I clearly acted in ways which hurt other people. Whether it was my privileged position and perspective that caused me to be perceived as insensitive or inappropriate at times or whether it was just my immaturity and me just being unnecessarily difficult, I apologize for my behavior and for any pain which I have caused. We all can grow and change and I have definitely used these past several months to reflect on my own shortcomings.
I am a couple of months from becoming a mother and I know I need to keep working to better myself and take responsibility for my actions, so that I can be a real role model for my child and so I can pass along my lessons and mistakes, so that they can learn from me. I listened to these criticisms and I am learning and while I am very sorry, I will be better in the future from this experience.
Do you believe she has changed or these are just words to save her career?
The DC Universe was recently shocked when it was announced that Ruby Rose would not be returning as Batwoman. What is The CW going to do for season two?
According to Decider, they are recasting Batwoman, but not Katy Kane. Instead, they are looking for a woman in her mid-20’s to play Ryan Wilder. The character is described as, “She’s likable, messy, a little goofy and untamed. She’s also nothing like Kate Kane, the woman who wore the batsuit before her.”
How they get rid of Kane, that we will find out in 2021. What do you think of their solution?

Before Chelsea Handler had her own comedy specials, she was doing stand up in comedy clubs. She looks the same now as she did in 2001 when she was 26.
