The Movie Theaters are open but very few people seem willing to go and theyre limited in the number of people they can have in the theater to begin with, so why would movie studios want to show their best stuff . And if youre not showing your best stuff why would i want to go to the Movie Theater . Its a circular argument and is a big problem. A lot of reinventing because they spent so much money on making these movies and then if you dont get a lot of people watching them certainly not going to get that return back at all. Exactly.
