First the mall and now theaters. What's next?

Toys. Buy all the stuff you want now because nobody will be making them in 10 years, maybe less.

Every movie is going to bomb this year, maybe Spider-Man will do okay but even then it wont pull the kind of numbers they’re hoping for.

The landscape has totally changed. I love going to the cinema but it’s time is coming to an end, slowly but surely.

The problem too is all the studios have the perfect scapegoat for movies that underperform. Blaming the pandemic and the Covid19 variants scaring people away. Never acknowledging for one minute that they are failing because they are actually making **** movies.

Makes you wonder how they are not declaring bankruptcy at this point. They certainly make more money than what you think. Disney has the deep pockets though.

Two years at the earliest. NA box office is rough and overseas is where these big budget movies make the dough. Opening and not so rough following weeks will determine a blockbuster.

It is pretty clear a significant amount of people in the U.S. are not even bothering going to theaters. That goes for me simply based in the fact that I don't see any of these movies as a worthy theater experience anyway. Spider-Man: No Way Home will be getting my money...and I hope that stays in December.

Disney? Hahaha never, their parks are killing it, but you are right i am completely put off by going to the movie theater right now, a favorite movie theater franchise of mine requires me to buy concessions in advance like if I know what I would want before I see the movie and you can’t order while watching the movie like the in past, spending $50-60 is a huge turn off, there’s a movie theater that’s way closer to me that lets me refill my popcorn at a station that’s a huge plus for me!!!

Corporate Buildings? Lolol

I miss the days of Stack ‘Em High Watch them Fly!!! My local store is only getting 2 boxes of the upcoming OG Party Wagon release ;(

Could had sworn they are trying to push back Spider man also, who knows.

I must had watched The Suicide Squad like 15 times through HBO max and couldn’t had asked for a better way lolololol

Even if they delay it, I doubt things will be looking any better for the box office in 2022 onwards either.

People have adapted, moved on. Streaming is the future.

Streaming is already experiencing issues of it's own too. Netflix is losing subscribers. Cutting off cable was the answer for a minute but now there are 15 individual streaming services to subscribe to.

Water parks.

Never been to one.

ain’t that the truth, seriously, I personally subscribe to HBO max, Discovery +, Tubi, Paramount +, Netflix, Amazon Prime, funnily enough Youtube still takes the most of my time lolol.

I’m curious though How much longer stand alone movie theaters can start to hold out before the landowners start bottlenecking their rents. Some near me function As part movie theaters part bowling alleys part arcades but still, very interesting times.

People are cutting things they don't need and that's entertainment. Most of it is bad anyway, but the coat of cable is crazy. Cutting the cord is easy now and actually offers competition which some people don't get with cable. Problem is it just isn't as reliable unless you get good speed for streaming. I cancel anytime and restart anytime. Netflix I don't even use most of the time, just get it free with T-Mobile.

That's a possibility with less kids playing with traditional toys and playing digital games and digital activities. I don't know about 10 years, but that's interesting.

Strip clubs.

Mud wrestling is in danger too.

Really? That?

Bet you said that about vinyl too.

Vinyl is a nitch hobby for the wealthy now who have the proper high end speakers that range from $350,000 on the very low end up to 2 million each to appreciate the nuance on the Halloween and F13th albums.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Your say nitch, I say niche.

Your say nitch, I say niche.

You snitch lol

That was my Clerks brain taking over

I don't think cable will be back, but streaming services might merge and become a cable like option, so you pay for a monthly package that includes several streaming services under one unbrella.
