Movie industry going down ?

[Iroscato]

I wish that they would give people the option of streaming new movies straight to their tvs or laptops. Some movies are fun to watch on a big screen but it has gotten so expensive that my family can't go as often as we'd like

I have a feeling that's the way things are moving, and movie releases will be 'split' between cinema and home release. Given the decline of DVD, the ease and massively reduced cost of uploading and distributing movies, and the increasingly narrowing margins facing distribution companies (for example, Amazing Spider-Man 2 made $700 million at the box office, but Sony spent so much on budget and marketing I think it only made ~$70 million net profit). It's coming, but unfortunately Hollywood is still run by stuffy old white men and as such will take its time in adapting, by which point The Pirate Bay will rule the industry anyway.
