Disney gutting its entire home entertainment division can't be good for the future of physical media, even if Sony is distributing those titles. Doesn't surprise me why we never got updates on new D+ titles on 4K and Blu-ray. Terrible to see all those job cuts across all departments.

PROJECT HAIL MARY in IMAX 70mm, taken by projectionist Taylor Umphenour. This is what the movies were made for.

This past week, I got to watch all three Lord of the Rings movies (extended) in theaters. I was too young to see them when they came out, so it was my first time on the big screen. Three things were clear to me: 1) the collapse of the theater industry is a tragedy; there’s something so special about seeing moments like Helm’s Deep and the Pelennor Fields in that format. 2) It was the perfect cultural (and technological) moment for those movies to be made. 3)Hollywood lacks the skill and care necessary to ever approach that level again. I’m glad that we braved the ice and snow to see them.

It's just so dispiriting that Netflix, a company actively hostile to theatrical distribution, has acquired WB after the year of huge wins they've had at the box office. It was all for naught.
Gentleman Doofus@GentleDoofus

Netflix, by far the largest streamer, absorbing HBO Max, which is the third largest, really should set off monopoly alarm bells, not to mention what this terrible news could be for movie theaters and physical media.

It does feel part of a broader push against the arts. You devalue the work of artists in favour of “content”, and you eliminate the people with the taste to distinguish the work of those artists from “content.” It’s a perfectly logical business strategy.
Kelli Boyle@kellixboyle

There is just no way that eliminating film/TV criticism is absolutely monetarily necessary. This is a pointed choice happening across the industry

rewatching Dead Reckoning and this movie is so fucking incredible. Hollywood magic from start to finish. a film that will delight anyone who watches it for the next 100 years. barely the third best installment of its franchise.

The feeling of seeing these moments from the past few years on the big screen in a dark room with a packed audience will never come close to the feeling of seeing them at home. Long live the theatrical experience.

Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos says releasing movies in theaters is “an outmoded idea for most people” and that Netflix is saving Hollywood. “What is the consumer trying to tell us? That they’d like to watch movies at home” (Source: Deadline)
