Summer has begun, and there are several movies I’d like to see on the big screen, including Top Gun Maverick, Jurassic World Dominion, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Everything Everywhere All at Once. Although I still don’t feel comfortable with Covid still spreading, I think I’d go if I wore a mask. At least for Top Gun. What movies are you planning to watch on the big screen this summer?
