      ❤️ preventive help with coronavirus. Speak quietly out loud or in normal voice "God, please make my health perfect and completely free from harmful virus. Thank you." Repeat every 1-2 hours (8-16 times a day) as long as the pandemic lasts and until a safe vaccine or other cure is available. God is love. This helps. No cost. www.howtocallongodforhelp.com Healing can happen on different levels. We're not just physical beings. Consciousness, thought, and prayer is not well understood. We all have a name. Yet science can't identify our name by any chemical or physical markers through careful examination of the human body. Healing is both mind and body. "A problem exists today regarding some know how to call on God for help while others do not. This loving help is available to all of us regardless of moral character, religious views, and personal beliefs. God does not punish and helps anyone asking correctly. God is love." Follow CDC guidelines www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html and Dr. Fauci's recommendations. Social distancing helps prevent infected droplets, splatter, and aerosol particles from entering the lungs. Reducing viral concentration will give the body better odds at handling infection. First line workers are at high risk because of continuous exposure to the virus, thus greater susceptibility to Covid19. "While fever, cough and shortness of breath have characterized the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated its list of common symptoms in late April to include a new loss of smell or taste." Look into foods high in Vitamin C (avoid harmful synthetic Vitamin C supplements), Vitamin D (20 minutes daily sunlight or supplement), and zinc. Please share. Thank you. ❤️

    I think even if AMC does go out of business theaters in general will continue to survive in some fashion. Theaters are apart of the movie culture and even if there are less of them the theater going experince is unique one and will survive in some way just like drive ins.
    I went through a traumatic experience at a theater and find it hard to enjoy the experience, as much as I love it the event has been a bit tainted for me though I'm lucky enough to have converted my spare bedroom into a theater room with actual AMC chairs and a 150 inch projector.

    I feel weird about going back to the theaters... and it has NOTHING to do with Corona Virus. Ready for it? I'm an AMC A-lister and watched movies all the time and loved it.. but the people working their drop the ball SOOO many times.
    My experience. (I usually go to AMC at Del Amo mall in Torrance)... I've watched movies there last year and couple times they forget to turn the lights off. Someone has to walk out of the movie theater to tell somebody. I mean come on... really? A couple other times they have a Windows desktop picture on the screen andnu already know its not working or setup right when u sit down. And if they DO get it running right they played movies with the same trailer back to back. Happened numerous times. You can hear people sigh when it comes on again. One time the same trailer played 3 times in a row. People were mad. Also about 10 times, yes 10.. of the 100 movies i saw last year they never even started the movie. They have someone come in the theater whose like 15 or 16 saying they're having technical issues and it'll be like 15 minutes. Then half an hour passes and then they tell people sorry but the movie isn't going to show. They DO give free passes so thats good but its sad you wasted part of ur day just sitting there. Also the theater door numbers dont have what movie is playing so if u lose ur ticket or something u cant figure out which theater to go into. Also the cleanliness OMG the cleanliness. I always look before I sit down but I.saw seats that were wet and so much trash on the floor even AFTER they clean up. You can even smell it too. I'll forever be a movie buff and love watching movies in theaters but im on the fence about going anymore but I think movie theaters may be on their way out. My friends 82" Samsung TV in his home looks just as good if not better than the IMAX quality in the movie theaters. So anyways, thats my 2 cents. Im glad ill be able to watch Mulan on Disney+ without wondering if there will be issues again. Man such a head scratcher to wonder about seeing a movie in movie theaters again.

      Jeez. That sounds like...even worse than what I expect from a cheap rundown movie theater. There's just no excuse for that, especially for AMC.
      The last time I've been to AMC, which was a couple of years ago, I noticed they no longer use masking. But the trailers and movies play properly. I usually go to a state-based theater (Harkins) and they make sure the presentation is right.
      Kinda disappointing to hear because I like the decor and overall design of AMC.

      I just went back to the movie theaters (Harkins). Presentation was good overall. For one thing, the lights do turn off. I think they are programmed to with the 'smart' technology in the multiplex. Picture was a bit dull, looking kinda like how my phone displays HDR, but I'm sure the 'CINE' screen has a brighter, more vivid picture. I saw Sonic the Hedgehog...

Jimmy Snow got treading that maybe one of the pastors was sexually attracted to pumpkins. Your Smashing Pumpkins shirt could not have been a better touch for the intro to my video. Thankyou.
