I think we're looking at another year of Covid. People aren't going to go to theaters, even if there were good movies (and there aren't).
Hollywood can't survive without ticket sales from blockbuster movies.
I'm thinking it's all going to be different. No more theaters. No more 200 million dollar movies that have to break a billion bucks to make up for all the losers that year.
What do you think? Will things ever be the way they were or are we looking at the end of the 'big movies in big theaters' way of life?
