We've talked about this here endlessly i know. I'm to the point where i think it's all fine. Most don't. In my opinion Netflix and Amazon want to shut movie theaters down, so it's definitely ironic for them to be saying things like you said in this thread. They'd prefer it if there were no theaters and no exhibition. All of their actions reflect that.

i know Ted Sarandos has whatever reasons he has for doing day and date but i don't see what they lose if they put things up 30 days after slipping jimmy Mar 23, 09:13

aside from the docs, they probably only have 2-3 movies per year that are legit award contenders as it is. {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 23, 09:24

they want people to watch movies on their platform. its about behavior not revenue {nm} Moviesnob Mar 23, 10:11

i get why they think they have to do it this way but it seems like such a weird hill to die on. putting their best features in theaters can slipping jimmy Mar 23, 11:32

Having working in theaters over 20 years, I always think about what will kill theaters. My thoughts on moviegoing in the maybe Catzan Mar 24, 15:50

Oscars would help to validate them with their audience and increase the value of their product RogerMore Mar 23, 06:08

especially with Docs. They basically own that space now with a few exceptions {nm} Moviesnob Mar 23, 06:58
