I dont know if malls will ever leave...Bye bye movies.
Bye bye malls and bye bye jobs.
Hello crime.
Breaking... Warner Bros entire slate of 2021 films to be released same day on HBOMAX .. Holy Shit
- Thread starter fonzerrillii
- Start date
I still like Ipic and Imax bro.Tried and told them.B-b-b-b-but the theater experience.
And I just finally seen Tenet. Why the fuck did that have to be watched in theaters?These dinosaurs on some serious drugs.
Maybe younger people don't need them, but I enjoy date night with my wife at the movies.

Because the right movie can make a billion plus on a theater run alone. No streaming service can replicate that (at least for now) Also, no streaming service is willing to pay that high of price for content. For example, there was a rumor that the studio that produced the latest 007 movie was willing to sell it to any streaming service that was willing to pay 600 million. They all said no thanks.
The current crop of movies with their 150 million plus price tags will need a strong theater run to at least break even.
Plus the second any movie hits a streaming service, it will be pirated with a quickness, another hinderance to making the most profit.
the flip side you are not obligated to pay beyond the month. You can jump in and out as needed. You want to see Dune in December, just sign up for december and cancel by January.
My 85" Samsung is like, "FUCK!!! This ninja is working from home, too? Shit, this ninja ain't gone never leave."
I think they are trying to cut their losses. Covid is going to make large theater crowds impossible at least till 2022. So they got these films loosing money and a new streaming service that is underperforming. So they put these films on HBO MAX for 14.99 a month to help boost subscription rates. In the end, a number of new subscribers will stick around and become long term subscribers. Plus the movie will still be in theaters locally and internationally so they will make some money with a theater run. Even though Tenet underperformed, it still made 356 million in total ticket sales.
That's why I named My 65" LG, "Lady Gal"
The (REAL) Girlfriend laughs at that shit.
Because not only did She rush over to help Me put it together on my Mount/Stand when I got it last year,
She also instigated that I name the Damn Thing.
Because She felt I was going to spend more time with the TV than Her.
C'mon Matrix 4 and DUNE.
Just got a Sonos HT system as gift and free hbo max from ATT need to get a new big screen and it’s on
I pay $5.99/month for HBO thru my cable service.
This works great for me.
This works great for me.
Why would anyone want to go to a theater if you are already paying for HBOMAX, overseas theaters i understand here in the states you would be a fool to pay for both. BGOL Theater is going to be on fire in 2021

Not everyone has HBO Max. Not everyone wants to see a movie at home.
Yeah damn near everyone does if not they have a hacked Fire Stick. AMC bankruptcy in 5...4...3...2
Yeah I thought that was pretty clear...
Why would they release all of these movies on the same day.
This is what I named my TV. Without using Google, guess the reference, October 26, 1985

Bro your movie thread is about to be on fire in 2021
So how could the streaming service by said movie? Which ever movie it is for a price? Meaning what would make it worth it for said streaming company?
Bye bye movies.
Bye bye malls and bye bye jobs.
Hello crime.
Hello Darkness, Hello sunshine
Hello not-at-all, Hello all the time...
song stuck in my head at the moment, my bad.
I assume those and all other WB releases will be in the trap before longC'mon Matrix 4 and DUNE.
from what I can tell rough estimate 100 to 150 seems to be the ceiling price range between netflix and prime (not counting HBO MAX because Warner Bros and HBO are all under ATT, I believe).
COMING TO AMERICA 2--AMAZON PRIME--125 million purchase from Paramount Studios
UNDER GROUND 6--NETFLIX--150 million purchase from Skydance Films
THE IRISHMAN--NETFLIX--159 million--I believe this was a Netflix original. As for the price, the reports about the de-aging effects is what made this movie the most expensive example I could find.
Here is a article I found that talks about a number of films in the 30+ range:
The big studio films that have been sold to streaming services – Film Stories
Paramount sells The Lovebirds to Netflix in the light of the Coronavirus spread, and it’s one of many big films from studios that have been sold to streamers. Given the risks involved in launching a non-franchise movie into cinemas – even before the Coronavirus spread – a growing number of big...

For comparison, No Time to Die the newest 007 movie budget is said to be 250 Million. Box office for the Craig Bond films has been anywhere from 500 million to 1 billion in grosses. With this supposedly being the last of the Craig era (thus the extra hype), the 600 million asking price wasn't too crazy
Well if 150 mill is tops for movies that these streaming companies are willing to pay, then there will always be movie theaters; no way that this big movie studios give up 600 plus basically guaranteed from these theaters; like it just wouldnt make good business sense; for lower level movies, yes maybe streaming; but for big budgeted and big money making titles, it just not going to happen any time soon....from what I can tell rough estimate 100 to 150 seems to be the ceiling price range between netflix and prime (not counting HBO MAX because Warner Bros and HBO are all under ATT, I believe).

Well dam, Disney has 70 million subscribers in their 1st year
they actually could just release certain movies onto their streaming site; and just send their blockbusters to the theaters ....WOW!!!..This is big!!...I'm looking forward to this!!....Thank you for the Internet!!..Free Free Free!!... 
Like I said in other threads Netflix and Disney is the hamburger and hotdog of the barbecue..they not battling each other they are co-existing with 1 another.. they both are great addition to the bbq and some people will dub a necessity..both have their audience and both are liked by most audiences so you will cop both to appease their demographic... everybody else is not a necessity and has to find a way to be a great addition to the bbq... netflix up their monthly subscription fee by a $1 and if you look how much revenue in the next 12 months that will rake in just by a buck increase it will bring in 2.4 billion dollars in profit.. that right there is spending money to buy some of these movies that are on the sideline due to covid.. some of those films will be brought to add to that Netflix library to appease fans.. Disney got certain films on standby that they can release on their streaming service to make customers want to stay.. those 2 are good.. the other streaming sites have to peep that and do a bunch of crazy moves in order to stay relevant.. I said that Mulan release and that $1 increase gonna start a lot of shit in the game..it’s happeningWell dam, Disney has 70 million subscribers in their 1st year
Circuit city ended, mad record stores ended, sports authority no more, modells gone, and so many more in the past 2 decades... you hear any rioting outside cause of it? Blockbuster got killed by Netflix..did the crime rate go up? .. biz is like life there’s a start and there’s an end.. yet things around it still go on..welcome to societyBye bye movies.
Bye bye malls and bye bye jobs.
Hello crime.
I know Warner Bros.main concern will be pirating but with such a huge library of new films and people that would rather wait until its truly safe to go back to the theaters subscriptions will increase.Plus HBOMAX isn't available in a lot of countries but theatres are open in those countries .
This is great for people who still can't go to a theater
