It's a real shame.
Because this is one of the few films in the last decade (at least) that genuinely deserves a cinema viewing.
I'm totally with you, though. I'm not particularly concerned about contracting Covid, but the thought of spending 2+ hours surrounded by fuckwits that are unwilling/unable to keep their faces covered is my idea of hell - and I didn't much like going to the cinema before all this, anyway.
I'm lucky enough to have a reasonably large telly and a reasonably good surround sound setup which is capable of at least doing justice to the movie - especially if I sit close, but a soundbar and a 43" flatscreen really isn't going to cut it.
I'm counting on Chapter One being re-released for cinemas when Chapter Two finally gets released so folk can sit down and watch the whole thing in one go. Maybe by then I'll be able to visit the local cinema without wanting to bludgeon to death everybody within 20 feet. Maybe.

Imma waiting for Chapter 2
I have my nice 4k 55" telly and ye olde (but still perfectly good) digital Sony surround system sitting and waiting. I did have a projector and pull down screen back in the day when 1080p HD was a thing but I can't afford a 4k projector so the 55 will have to do :)
Considering my first telly was a 14" Samsung I think I'll be fine :)
