I assure you that if Netflix was willing to do a 45 window - or even a 30 day window - that theaters would gladly show it. - Mop May 24, 07:38 1
- Agreed. This is exactly what I'm saying. The current window prevents chains from showing it, and Netflix is debating opening it up. -- nm - MDH May 24, 07:43
curious how their accounting works. The money is out the door of course; but do they record the expenses while filming? or expense the works - Beaker May 24, 07:34
I know Cinemark has carried a few of the Netflix movies for that week. That's stinks. But I did just see Cinemark will have GI The Movie for the 35th - sycor May 24, 07:25 2
- Yeah, Cinemark - and a lot of independents - won’t follow AMC’s and Regal’s lead. It remains to be seen if the hard line is the right approach. - Mop May 24, 07:40 1
  - AMC and Regal both showed Firestarter and Marry Me, just on less screens/theaters. -- nm - MDH May 24, 07:44
I love this narrative that Netflix needs theaters because that's where the money is right now. - Inigo May 24, 07:22
