Why are you unable to go to theatre in January? -
Does anyone here know what the budget for Allied is?

The history will remember James Cameron as one of the greatest artists, businessmen and explorers in all human history.

Titanic rerelease in 2012 made huge amount of money.

Does anyone have any knowledge about how much digital HD sales are nowadays? Have there been growth on that market lately? Does it maker more money to studios than physical media at this point?

It tells a lot that even Arnold, the quintessential alpha male, looks up to James Cameron. I think that lot of the hate Jim gets stems from the fact that he is so alpha that he makes people feel beta and that makes them feel threatened. Deep-down the haters know that they just can't compete with this animal.

People who claim that Jim is egotistical should realize that stating the facts has nothing to do with the ego!

10 years ago almost everyone had bought DVDs and most people had 10+ DVDs not just cinephiles. If you go and ask around how many have bough VOD titles from iTunes etc. I am quite sure that it's not even close to as common as buying DVDs was 10 years. Netflix seems to be only digital alternative that is as popular as DVD once were. Sadly it's business model just doesn't generate even close as much revenue for film industry.

Netflix etc. doesn't generally have any new movies so it's effect to HV sales of new releases probably isn't that big (at least compared to piracy). And if by legal streaming services you meant pay-per-view platforms like iTunes and Google Play that do have new movies, no I don't think that I am conflating the effect of piracy when compared to legal streaming services. 10 years ago almost everyone had bough DVDs and most people had 10+ DVDs not just cinephiles.

Maybe not to a Hollywood's total revenue (although I am skeptical how anyone could proof it because so many different thinks affect it) but it absolutely has decreased HV sales. Especially in younger generations. It's completely delusional to deny that. Now days it's mostly film buffs that collect Blu-rays, 10 years ago almost every home had quite sizeable DVD collections.
