Netflix has no financial interest in steering people to theaters when they want people to sub to their service. Anyone in hollywood who doesn’t see that is a fool
>Exhibition wants Netflix to commit to theatrical runs more, and the streamer will have contractual obligations to filmmakers once they complete their acquisition of Warner Bros. *Stranger Things* finale is something of an olive branch to exhibition, and a means for Netflix to experiment and dip their toes into the theatrical business. Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos has waffled in his messaging on theatrical telling analysts on an earnings call post the success of *KPop* that Netflix prioritizes their first run movies for the service.

>Post Netflix firming up its bid for Warner Bros, Sarandos has changed his tune, telling the media, ““There’s been a lot of talk about theatrical distribution, so we want to set the record straight: we are 100% committed to releasing Warner Bros. films in theaters with industry-standard windows.” The town continues to worry what “traditional” means for Netflix. Sources have told Deadline that Netflix have been proponents of a 17-day window which would steamroll the theatrical business, while circuits such as AMC believe the line needs to be held around 45 days.
It can be 17 or 45 days. It just means the actual release day for me will be when it comes to streaming. If the movie isn’t a major movie then I can wait for it to come to streaming.
i think 30 days would be a good compromise. Netflix would wait 13 more days and AMC, etc. would cut 15 days.
Man I remember when movies were in theaters for like a year. Wasn’t Titanic almost two years? I know it took forever to come out on VHS and my dad and I witnessed a literal fight at Blockbuster over the last copy they had.
Netflix shouldn’t rock the boat unless they want theaters to boycott WB films. . .
Unless that’s what they’re wanting, of course.
Anything less than 90 hurts theatrical, imo.
I still love going to movies and am pissed that AMC is going to try to drive them out of business. I barely watch TV or movies on any platform, including Netflix so no problem canceling it.
