Is record breaking theater gross officially over?

There was streaming prior to the pandemic and movies were doing a billion.
And top tier actors and directors still buy into the prestige of films over TV.

Streaming is even better now.

People are going to get burned out with staying at home for everything. I can't sit around all day watching movies anymore. That was my Sat or Sun afternoon pasttime before.

If streaming new movies day one becomes a thing companies will just come up with new math that translates movie streams into ticket revenue, just like music did with streams and album sales.

but I don’t personally think movie theaters are going anywhere. People still want to get out and given the chance they will.

big grossing movies we’ll be back in a couple years once we get adjusted to rona

We won’t see it again in our lifetime

Lack of repeat viewing is going to kill the chances to break pre-COVID records
Since the release window is only 45 days now before it goes to streaming folks just going to wait to see it again at home

No, just on a minor detour. shyt will be better in 5 years, or less.
