If I were you I would not recommend people take off Yarmulkes. A Yarmulke is a testament and reminder to the wearer that there is a G-d above him. By taking off your Yarmulke its like telling yourself “Hashem isn’t here he can’t see me now Im flying under the radar and can get away with this because I took off my Yarmulke so now Im not Jewish so the not Jewish guy whoever he is did this but me, I DIDN’T DO THIS” its a way of lying to yourself and trying to make your conscience feel better. If you know you have to wear a Yarmuulka the whole time maybe you wont end up going into the movie theater in the first place!
