I am sorry there are no show times listed.
user
There are no show times listed for either movie at either theater?
assistant
That is correct.
user
When do they plan to show the movies?
assistant
Both movies have had their release dates delayed until fall.
user
Wow until fall? What other movies are the two theaters showing and what are their show times?
assistant
Neither theater lists any movies with show times, apparently they are both closed until further notice.
user
Neither the AMC or the Cinemark are open or showing any movies?

Cinemark

assistant
That is correct.
user
Why do you think they are closed?
assistant
My research tells me humans are discouraged from gathering during the pandemic.
user
Well that makes sense I guess but what is everyone supposed to do for entertainment anyway?
assistant
Not go to the movies I suppose.
