      Yet they were in the running to buy WB. These streaming services have actually done so much damage to the industry. Shame

      I thought all the anti paramount people were saying how committed they were to theaters now and how they are changing their business model? Oh wait, was that all talk?

      The cinema market will never become a streaming market, and without cooperation, Netflix’s quality will continue to decline.

    4. Maybe they would work with them if they did more theatrical releases… just a guess.

      Basically, they want movies without having to pay for distribution, royalties to performers, outside advertising expenses, lobbying for awards, box office performance bonuses, ect.  ect.

      I haven’t had a Netflix account in years. And I don’t feel out of the loop. They should stick to tv shows.

    7. I hate movie theaters. The experience is not the same as before and its overpriced for no reason. There is always people that wont shut up or people with loud kids or babies. If ima drop close to 100 with the family there I rather have the option to rent the movie on release ppv style and watch it on my 98 inch 4k tv with my sound system and be able to pause it.
