It's funny to read that theaters are not making money with films like Avengers: Endgame ($2.752 billion so far and it's not over), Captain Marvel ($1.128 billion and it's still playing in some cinemas), John Wick 3 (the most money-maker of the franchise), Toy Story 4, Aladdin, ... all the Marvel flicks, Star Wars, DC Comics flicks, Avatar sequels eventually.
More and more cinema theaters are being built worldwide, not just in North America; populations concentrated around cities keep growing up, more babies, more teens, more people are populating the planet. Movies are always open to expanding business. Other countries where movies were prohibited are jumping in now...Saudi Arabia. ...Who's next?
Sure we have HBO, Netflix, Amazon, You Tube, Vudu, Hulu, The Disney channel, The Criterion Collection channel, Sony, ...streaming moving apps @ home. But it's not like the Academy Award ceremonies are going to cease existing soon.
And what about smart films; those usually make the less money.
Is the cinema culture just a straight sensorial pleasure?
What about our brain? Is money the big brain feeder of our movie culture?
What about making movies just to make a lot of money and reissue them over and over the same same thing just to eclipse old records? ...Avengers: Endgame being the top best example.
What about Steven Spielberg and Christopher Nolan's old school philosophy of movies @ the theaters being the ones eligible for the most prestigious awards?
The movie experience; what are all the ingredients contributing to it best; the bigger the screen, the louder the sound, the crisper the picture, the more colorful, the more people in the audience, ...?
Is a home front projector 4K 3D counts, is homemade popcorn counts, is state-of-the-art home theater sound (Atmos, Auro-3D, DTS:X) counts, is OLED 8K 96" HDR10+, Dolby Vision TV counts, is HBO and Netflix exclusive films count?
What is and what disparity exists between financial success and cinema culture in public and @ home?
Some theaters suck, let's be honest here, others are à l'avant-garde of suprême technology.
Some people have the privilege to experience, most do not. If you can't visit the world you can make the world visiting you @ home on your iPad.
It's an open discussion about films, not just audio. Because music and moving pictures matter.
