ACK! ACK ACK! ACK!!!
I’ve seen this topic come up here and there and it was something I’d thought about even before a pandemic.
While there’s undoubtably something unique about seeing a movie in a theater (I can’t imagine Avengers: End Game without everyone’s reaction to key moments), if movies were offered a combo of theater release or VOD on the same day how much more likely would you be to see more movies?
I feel like I’d be more inclined to order a pizza and rent a standard, non-tent pole new release for $20 for myself or my wife and I then go spend about as much (in my area) on tickets for the same thing at a theater.
I realize this is pie in the sky thinking as theaters would never allow it but curious as to everyone’s opinion.
