It will be 6 months before a vaccine is available to most regular people, and then the next 6 months after that will be trying to get it to the entire population, it takes 2 shots 1 month a part, i believe, this is going to be a world-wide 6-12 months pretty much.  Early 2021 is heavily impacted, the summer is just a maybe...maybe...by summer there will be a semblance of movie going, but here in US where it is worst...who knows.   Maybe 1/2 normal box office by summer.  So..if it is even out that they are considering such things...with how bad this will be and how long it will take..it is highly likely.  Imo.

Their current CEO is Direct to Consumer first (he helped build Hulu) and AT&T statements to the contrary felt the HBO Max launch was bungled notfabio Dec 01, 16:22

But even long-time movie studio execs tend to hate having to deal with exhibition. {nm} notfabio Dec 01, 16:24
