    What's the story with you and your obsession with franchises, anyways?

    If it weren't for the rare times that you talk about yourself, it's really honestly hard to tell you apart from some sort of market-research bot.

    Looks like we're going to have to...

    I'm not sure why they looking into streaming options instead of waiting for theaters to reopen.

    Plus Theaters are already reopening in some places but some people think they might be doing that too soon. Were I live there's only been 3 confirmed cases of the virus and they were all from people traveling out of town. Not even people who actually live here which is why my county was blocking off travel in or out to protect the people living here from the people outside.

    Anyway despite the fact that it seems no one has the virus, we're still wearing masks, the theaters still shut down, ect. We're not as strict about wearing masks, like I was at Wal Mart the other day and saw three people walking around in the store without masks. In other places I know they won't even let you in the store without a mask.

    Schools are being the most cautious. My kid only goes to school 2 days a week and every day we have to take his temperature and fill a forum that basically tells them he doesn't have the virus. Without the forum they won't let him on the bus. They did let the temperature thing slide on the first day cause no one knew we were suppose to do that but every day since then we've been taking his temperature just because they told me we had to do that every morning before he gets on the bus.

    I'm not sure what other schools are doing. I think a lot of schools are staying closed entirely. The bus driver mentioned that his school was the only one that's even open right now. He normally drives for other schools as well and in fact it's a high school bus despite the fact that my kid is still in elementary. There's only so many disabled buses in the country with wheelchair access. If it were a regular bus he'd strictly only be picking up High School kids but because it's a special needs bus there's like 3 or 4 other schools on his route. But right now because of the virus it's just the 1 school.

    Anyway I am kind of curious, for anyone else with kids returning to school... are you required to take their temperature and fill out a forum every morning? This forums by the way is basically "Has your child had any of these symptoms" and then a list of Corona Virus symptoms with a "Yes" or "No" check box next to it plus the line where we write in his current temperature every day.

    Side note while I looking at that list of symptoms I realized that I've had all of those symptoms though they're completely unrelated to the virus. I've had pre-existing conditions with similar symptoms YEARS before the virus was ever a thing.

    FREE GUY: 10 Biggest Takeaways From The Recent Ryan Reynolds-Led Press Conference

    Joe Keery best describes the film as, "It's kind of like if the Truman Show and, like, Ready Player One had a baby and was raised by someone who loved Back to the Future a bunch."

    The film will feature a very unique romance between Guy (Ryan Reynolds) and Milly (Jodie Comer), which, of course, begins after a misunderstanding when Milly's avatar Molotov Girl comes across Guy in the game and assumes he's a real person.

    Shawn Levy left plenty of room for his stars to improvise comedic moments throughout the film.

    Levy hopes, that people will relate to this film and maybe gain some insight from the film's central idea, which is to "Stop living in the background, or start to notice the person in the background. Empathize with the person in the background. That's a big part of the themes that play in this movie, and while they're called NPCs, non-player characters and it's set in a video game, the movie is really not about video games as much as it is about being a person in the world and how you choose to live and hopefully the warmth and the humanity, and the belief in people and empathy and connection that I mean. Look, for anyone who's looking for a dark nihilistic, cynical kind of the movie, Free Guy ain't for you."

    Nice. But the normal guy being a "chosen one" doesn't sit right, he's meant to be random dude.

    He's a NPC. He isn't a chosen one. He's a character in a video game. She's likely talking to him after a reset and he forgot what he did the previous day.
