Movie industry going down ?

[Nope]

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 think that Hollywood is simply creatively bankrupt and has partly reduced itself to selling gimmicks. Quality story telling is nowadays found in high budget TV series.

For Jurassic World, we sought out the one theatre in the city which showed in 2D because as far as I am concerned, 3D is crap picture quality for double the price.

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.

The internet is shifting towards kickass torrents more now these days, cuz KAT got a reliable voting system, much much less scams, bigger community, better uploads and a better website.

Thanks, I'll bear that in mind for next time Huh, that sounds interesting. I guess you can't be king forever.

Yeah I would say movie industry is gowing down. Imagine there was once a time when movie like "The Wild Bunch" was made! That world looks now like some other planet. I mean what do we have today? "Minions" you know yellow creatures with big eyes that talk like babies for everybody to laugh and forget the horrendus problems world is facing. WTF happened?

Most movies suck anyway.
