Torrenting it all

Man aint no hbo max app for Roku yet so I’ll still go to the movies as of now

Chris Nolan killed cinema

It's the one thing he didn't want to happen

Increased my position on AMC stock after this news caused their stock to tank a bit.

Now I wait

Its at almost 4 dollars, you think it’s gonna go back up?

 

[Rekkapryde]

its for theaters not studios

but seriously.. how does this sound

Spoiler

change ALL spots to a mini home theater for rent with about 10 seats reg and a 25 seater for party rentals.. flat fee with soda and popcorn included... hot food and candy is extra.. especially in the is climate.. its just you and you family in a theater... but it brings back the appeal and can be the new gimmick to get people back in theaters

I'm glad it's included as a benefit of my job via HBO.

AT&T Fiber customers get it for Free 99.

HBO Doubling down on they ass!!! Putting their nuts on the table!

 

[Rekkapryde]

Indeed, but that's also an overlooked part of this. It's layers. It entices people to get AT&T internet and cell service.

People don't think AT&T execs crunched the numbers before making this move.

Thanks for confirming...my biggest complaint about HBO max is the total lack of 4k content. Can’t wait to screen WW1984 in 4k HDR on 120” screen come Dec

what kinda projector you got fam?

Yeah that’s good for them but movies are usually financed by several investors( or product deals)when the budgets start getting really high.

So not having these in theaters all over the world does nothing to recoup their investments unless AT&T is going to buy them out which means all the risk is on them

they're still in theaters though and overseas covid control is still significantly better than the shytshow here in the states. Tenet did 300 million overseas and only 57 million here. Now granted you only get 20-40% of the ticket revenue from overseas compared to half here, but

Should have made his dialogue easier to hear instead of having people like

trying to make out the key plot points then

Seriously though - the level of pretentiousness it takes to insist people risk their health to go see your movie in the middle of a pandemic is just

AMC Theaters Slams Warner Bros' HBO Max 2021 Movies Release Plan - IGN

The President of AMC Theaters seems to not be living in the real world with this statement:

Aron said AMC Theaters is already in an "immediate and urgent dialogue" with Warner Bros. He also said the theater chain is confident that incoming COVID-19 vaccines will make it easier for moviegoers to return to theaters safely and with peace of mind.

If the past year of people just being like "fukk science!" has taught me anything its that vaccine or no vaccine, we will still be a hot COVID mess throughout all of 2021 in this country.
