We Watched A Movie

The End of Blu Rays and Movie Theaters? (2012x39)

: 22, 2012

We discuss the direction of the movie industry as far as Blu Rays, DVD's, and movie theaters are concerned. Based on two stories in recent weeks. A man is suing AMC theaters for price gouging on concession stand foods and Wal Mart will start converting DVD's and Blu Rays to digital copies starting in April of this year. For a price of 2$ Wal Mart will begin accepting DVD's and Blu Rays and transferring them to digital copies to be kept in an online storage device. Is the movie industry trying to do the same thing as the music industry? We discuss the fact that movie theaters could be on their way out due to instant streaming and on demand. It's no secret movie theaters aren't selling the amount of tickets they used to, and this coupled with the fact that they may be forced to lower concession prices could be one more sign of the end of Movie Theaters. It may be in the movie distribution companies best interest to convert all movie media to digital copies and online storage because of the high cost of physical copies of DVD's and Blu Rays. Could this be a sign they are trying to eliminate physical copies of movies? We sure hope not. We discuss all this and more on We Watched a Movie. What do you think of all this nonsense?
