The big nice AMC (former Rave) theater closest to me was a ghost town throughout the latter half of 2020 and most of this year. Overgrown weeds coming up through the pavement/parking lot and sidewalk/steps, all the posters gone, no lights on, etc. Just...abandoned. And this is a hopping place, for years. So strange to see it just sitting there (it's part of a strip mall with other restaurants and stores that stay busy, but down at the far end where the AMC 18 sat, it was just this dark, sad little ghost town of a former movie venue.

It's open again, but every time I drive past, it seems I can count the cars on two, maybe three, hands. I don't think it'll ever be like it was. A shame because it's a nice 18-room stadium seater, clean, comfortable seating, pretty good popcorn, etc. And back in about 2018-2019 they'd put in those "everything in one" self-serve soda machines where you touch-screened your options and poured your drinks yourself. It was a nice setup/layout.
