Nuked On Friday, a VP at drone company DJI tweeted a drone flight through a mostly-empty movie theater in Minnesota. I do n’t know about you but I really miss going to the movies. This video makes that longing about 100 times worse.
The video is a one-take fly-through of Mann theaters’ Plymouth grand in Plymouth, Minnesota. It was filmed using a DJI air unit and rotor riot cinewhoop.
The video is just over a minute long, but the drone takes us through the lobby. There’s some familiar-sounding background music playing in the lobby portion.
A long hallway into one of the actual theaters is filmed at a bar. The bar is where a couple snags a bucket of overpriced movie popcorn. Then the bartender tells his patron,’you name it, I’ve seen it’.
There are so many empty seats in that theater it really felt a little sad. But then we hear a familiar pre-movie sound: we’ve been watching the movie screen.
