Even if there is a vaccine by winter? (which is looking likely) I got to be honest I am really hesitant to take any vaccine. but if there is one that has shown significant success rate there is no justifying keeping theaters closed. What do you mean by consolidate? you mean merge with streaming planforms? that is probably likely.

Moving WW84 outside of 2020 would be disastrous. without massive aid from a stimulus movie theaters will be virtually extinct come next spring, if they refuse to release anything. I think they will get some kind of aid, but they need it SOON. unfortunately many Americans are still really scared from the virus. I have gone to the theaters twice post shutdown now and there was almost no one there. I actually felt safer there then I do going to the grocery store. This is going to be a long road to recovery for the theater industry, even if they said that could open 100% of theaters at full capacity. even if a magic vaccine was released that was sure to be cure people from the virus, people are so driven by fear now, it would probably take at least a year for a full recovery and that is being optimistic. I think some studios are just going to have to release some of big films knowing they will not make as much as they used to. I also don't really believe "Tenet" was the best film to release first thing post lockdown, it was fairly dark and people wear respirators in the trailer. I believe WW84 will do decent if released at Christmas, if no more theaters are forced to shut. not nearly as well as before, but I think it can cross $200m over an extended period of time. But yeah it will probably be 2022 before we see a film hit the $400m mark again. and we might not even see $300m next year. granted even if most theaters go bankrupt I think the theater industry will come back eventfully because there is a hunger for that market and people will want to start getting out again. but if they keep pushing it we might be looking at 5-10 years before a significant recovery takes place. , but NY and CA have to open up they just got to do it.

BOT's Top 100 Movies of All Time - Hindsight is 2020 Edition
Kalo replied to The Panda's topic in The Speakeasy
Dang it, I was literally working on my top 100 to send it, but I had to run to do something. -
I would love it if it were Dune, WW84, had a strong chance pre-pandemic. probably not anymore.. realistically maybe Eternals, could be something really sad like F9 or Minions 2 though. thanks to all this reshuffling I just realized most of my most anticipated movies won't come out until 2022 now. (Matrix 4, DS 2, Thor 4, )

One thing I'm glad from this shutdown is that it took Disney down a few notches. and I like alot of thier content, but we do not want them to be a monopoly. which is what they were becoming.

Whoops meant to put this in the speakeasy. would a mod please move it?

My local theater is still closed, but I plan on going once Tenet is released in July. I might go a bit sooner if they play something old I really want to see. although my state is kind of late to the outbreak, so I think it is just now starting to go down, so I will probably wait till mid July anyways, but once the virus dies down, like it already is starting to a lot of places, I plan on going as much as possible to support theater owners. remember studios are multi billion dollar company's and most of them will be fine and go to streaming or whatever, it is theater chains and especially small and independent theater owners that stand to lose the most.

Well it's looking like movie theaters will pretty much be all open come mid next month, some are already open and many will be the next couple weeks, but the question remains when will you return? there is talk of shortening or having no window for Theater to streaming releases. Universal already plans to release movies in theaters and on VOD simultaneously. for someone who loves going to the movies as it is a major part of my childhood and a way to escape and enjoy a story on the big screen as a result I think this is a bad idea. I know people are still pretty shaken up. and I can understand if you're wanting to wait a bit. but going to the movies is an experience and experiencing it with others in a crowded theater on the big screen opening night cannot be replaced. lets not allow this time for us to loose connection with each other and be fearful of gatherings, it is a pert of the human experience. I have been writing about all the films I've seen on my Instagram you can read them through #292daysathemovies. (alexfarr90). let me know what you think.
