Just die already

Would suck not being able to watch movies on the big screen imo

If enough of them die, then that particular market will need to correct. The movie industry needs consumers.

Or, to put it another way, the current business models need to die, so they can be replaced with better models.

I have a more cynical view where it’s the smaller ones that die and the market just turbo consolidates, and the remaining cinemas get even shittier since there will be always people who probably go to cinema no matter what

Hmm. Yeah. That is exactly what would happen.

Though the possible advantage of that is the bargaining power of the cinemas increases compared to the distributors… as if cinemas should have some form of union ;-)
