NYT: Universal theatrical windows are going back to 5 weeks and 7 weeks starting in 2027. Their 3 week contracts have expired Mar 12, 07:17
7 weeks = 49 day windows {nm} Mar 12, 07:19
but they mean around 45 days for bigger titles {nm} Mar 12, 07:28
At least it's not further contraction is how I look at it {nm} Mar 12, 07:31
Yep, but I cant read this due to paywall, so I hope they mean 45 days to PVOD/TVOD not SVOD {nm} Mar 12, 07:49
Isn't that what it's always been since COVID? Mar 12, 09:57

The industry is going to change big this year, that's a solid bet. Longer windows will be much more viable. Mar 12, 07:19
Still going to be rough sledding going forward especially when/if the Par/WB deal closes but good news is good news {nm} Mar 12, 07:28
Focus will remain 17 days, so expect art houses to further contract {nm} Mar 12, 07:22
