Disc; still holding and hoping but honestly think the world of theatre going is not going to the same again. It will bounce back to some extent in 2 to 3 years but I just think that more and more people have home theatres and are going to get used to streaming new releases at home. I think there will be more direct to streaming releases and less releases to theatres. Off the top of my head I can think of three friends who have proper home theatre setups with proper movie theatre chairs and a large wall to project movies on
Yeah I don’t think everyone can afford that setup in any country except the upper middle class to the rich ..
Disc not a holder . Regret not trading this though lol

Thank you for that. It’s a small ray of hope...

Only 1 of those 3 is rich. Of the others, one lives rural so he converted an old garage into an amazing home theatre and the other is in IT and loves movies and tech toys.
I also think, psychologically speaking, that many people are preferring to socialise at home and not risk going out. I’m not sure if this will be an ongoing trend. I saw an article about this and they had a particular phrase for people becoming more introverted post COVID 19

streaming is a threat. Only time will tell. movie theatre is not the first time facing challenge. When TV was invented, people thought cinema would fade, but it's not. When DVD became popular, people thought cinema would fade, but it didn't happen. So let's see if streaming will knock cinema down.

Streaming is a very western thing and limited to upper classes in Asia. You need very fast fibre internet to have a seamless streaming experience. Asian media landscape (except for Japan and Korea) is probably 10-15 years behind the west.

You are so wrong , the West fibre internet speed is even slower than Asia's countries ( Viet Nam, Thailand, Malaysia..).Japan and Korea ( these countries VGL is operating right now). Only Africa is still in third world.

India is predominately mobile driven. because of that netflix offers subs are $4 a month for a mobile pass
vista had to cancel their full purchase of their jv partner in china to protect cash flow. besides that china's internet has no issues.

Yes i said except Japan and Korea. In countries like Vietnam and Malaysia streaming is mainly done by upper middle class, not the masses. Masses still watch linear tv programming.
