I mean, let’s be real, sometimes going to the movies is cool. Sometimes your like “I’d watch it but I ain’t going to the movies for it”.

Speeding up the time for the second and charging a premium for it is smart business.

Most of the former will have seen it by the 3rd week anyway. And if it is one of those movies that stays hot for a while, Universal can hold off on the VOD release

Movies theaters just need to enhance the experience to make in incomparable to home theaters. Rumble seats, wind,water and heat effects would be dope.
Imagine an explosion happens on screen and feel the warmth hit your face. Something splashes, you feel a light trickle etc. They already do things like this at disney and universal theme parks.
If it's just sound and picture quality i can get that at home. matter fact lately the only two reasons i go to theaters is 1) because it comes out there first. and 2) sometimes i know a movie will be better with the crowd interaction. Comedies are so much funnier with everybody around you laughing for example.

"Get Out" was a hell of an experience in a black movie theater, with all the heads going :gladbron: and :ohhh: and :damn: in all the twist and turns.

Now, you stream it in your 8k TV at your crib, all :yeshrug: and maybe a :ehh: expression
