Bold of you to assume Michael Bay would start following his own continuity now
Upcoming Live-Action Film Rumors
- Thread starter Undead Scottsman
- Start date
Right I don't think studios like Disney are going to be spending mega movie budget money like you saw with those SW shows. Though I don't know how they can square that with the fact that theater attendance is still trending downwards.
I don't think if 3D happened now, rather than when it did to make everyone sick of it, that it would have changed fortunes too much.
But I do think something that can set the theater experience further apart from watching at home in a similar way would be beneficial.
Alternatively, this is kind of anti-consumer, but does anyone remember how long it took for a movie to hit home video back in like, the '80s?
Maybe if movies didn't hit streaming three weeks after opening in theaters, people would be more inclined to go and check them out when they are.

I remember. I don't know when movies started moving from theaters to home video at warp speed, but it can't be helping theater numbers.
When every studio and their mother started their own streaming service and needed content to try and inflate their subscriber numbers for the investors.
It was before that. I remember seeing DVDs in the stores like a month after the initial theatre run. This was in the 2010s. They were greasing that pipe line long before streaming picked up.
