Movies

Felt the same way about what? That big presentations would no longer draw crowds? Somebody better tell the Stones . . .

Records, radio, vinyl, cassette, 8-track, CD, MTV, digital . . . through it all, people paid for in-person entertainment.  That makes your point, in this context, difficult to apprehend.

You seem disaffected.  Your opinions are unpopular because they deserve to be.

 

(Speaking of MTV . . . what in the hell is happening there? A skaterboy and two or three other nobodies watching dumb home videos 21 hours each day?  Dumb is sometimes entertaining, but this is pathetic.)

THR: S&P Global downgrades AMC Theatres credit yet again, says its latest debt swap is essentially a default notfabio Aug 03, 14:53

i guess you'll have to find another message board for your pessimism then {nm} Moviesnob Aug 03, 16:35

My 'pessimism' (lol) is based on a hypothesis that COVID will prove to be the catalyst that nudges legacies (like the box office) to digital stormgod Aug 03, 16:52

This is a messageboard for a game with movies tied to the box office, not CDs. {nm} Antibody Aug 03, 16:58

That was an analogy from the music industry. I'm sure they felt the same as you 20 years ago: stormgod Aug 03, 17:07

The CD equivalent of Movies is VHS/DVD/Blu-ray, not Cinemas. {nm} Antibody Aug 03, 17:13

Uh-huh {nm} stormgod Aug 03, 17:18

Kevin O Leary is doing press for Shark Tank, he's pushing for the government not to bailout movie theatres among others. notfabio Aug 03, 17:15

I'm personally for an open market, but that belief comes with another from Heraclitus: “There is nothing permanent except change.” {nm} Moviesnob Aug 03, 17:33

the Kevin O'Leary Rule: never listen to Kevin O'Leary {nm} pickle rick! Aug 03, 17:38

Nobody knows anything. Not me. Not you and not the opinions you post. Moviesnob Aug 03, 17:27

I'm not rooting for HSX to fail, I see the market changing. And I reserve the right to post unpopular opinions. {nm} stormgod Aug 03, 17:38

They are only unpopular in your mind. that was an invitation to engage to how HSX can exist in a post box office world Moviesnob Aug 03, 17:49

Add streaming data? {nm} stormgod Aug 03, 17:58

it would need to be publicly available data thats universal across a set period of time for all films Moviesnob Aug 03, 18:04

Give it time. {nm} stormgod Aug 03, 18:08

thats unhelpful {nm} Moviesnob Aug 03, 18:15

You seem to be posting just spread negativity. TerenceHill Aug 04, 00:31
