Grab some popcorn (and a mask), it’s time to go to the movies.
The summer movie season is officially here, with the usual mix of superheroes, reboots, sequels and family-friendly films — plus a large number of horror flicks that will remind you why it’s more fun to watch with a crowd. Most theaters have reopened after last year’s coronavirus shutdown, including Regal Cinemas and AMC Theatres locations across Upstate New York, the Movie Tavern in Camillus, the Hollywood Theatre in Mattydale, the Manlius Art Cinema, the Finger Lakes Drive-In, the Auburn Movieplex, and now the Midway Drive-In.
Keep in mind, movie theaters in New York state still have social distancing rules in place, so capacity is limited. Even if you’re fully vaccinated, face masks are required except when seated and eating or drinking. Hand sanitizers and other Covid-19 safety measures are also in place.
Movies currently in theaters include the new “Spiral: From the Book of Saw”; “Mortal Kombat”; “Wrath of Man” (starring Jason Statham, Josh Hartnett and Syracuse native Post Malone); Angelina Jolie’s “Those Who Wish Me Dead”; ‘Godzilla vs. Kong”; Disney’s “Raya and the Last Dragon”; “Nobody”; “Here Today”; and the romantic drama “Finding You” (starring Syracuse University alumnus Tom Everett Scott).
But there are plenty of blockbusters on the way, including Disney’s “Cruella,” the Upstate New York-shot “A Quiet Place Part II,” Marvel’s “Black Widow,” James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad,” the Aretha Franklin biopic “Respect,” the CNY thriller “The Night House,” Dwayne Johnson’s “Jungle Cruise,” and “F9″ (a.k.a. “Fast and Furious 9″).
See the full list of movies coming out this summer, along with release dates and trailers. (Note: Some videos may contain disturbing content not suitable for younger audiences.)
