WHAT A NETFLIX–WARNER DEAL MEANS FOR FILM: Theaters and physical media.
Manage episode 522936407 series 3554634
We weigh the Netflix–Warner Bros. deal, why theaters won’t die but will shrink, and why physical media still matters when streaming purges the forgettable and the future cult classics. We share a practical release model, vent about bad theater etiquette, and set grounded hopes for DC and Snyder.
• Streaming-first habits over cinema trips
• Case for limited but real theatrical windows
• Risk to physical media and cultural memory
• Dual-cut strategy for theaters and streaming
• Hopes for contained Snyder closures at DC
• Consolidation leading to fewer, sharper releases
• Convenience vs ownership: when to stream or buy
• Theater etiquette and why the experience suffered
Let me know what you think. Are you worried? Do you buy physical copies?
