Investroid, you simply don't get it, it's about human beings & experiences! It's like saying once folk can buy a record, cassette, CD or download or watch MTV or YouTube it kills live music?!? It simply doesn't seeing a band live, travelling to the venue, buying a ticket and enjoying it with others is key. Cinema for movies is like seeing a live band for music, you cannot recreate the experience. I took my daughter out to see Hook a few years back at the cinema, she was about 6, told here we were off to Wickes to buy some DIY stuff, walked her up to the ticket machine and then passed her the ticket to check what we are going to buy. She completely missed that we'd walked into a cinema and couldn't believe we were 10mins away from watching a movie when she read Hook on the ticket! If she's at home now it's all about Roblox & AmongUs on the iPad, she never remembers yesterday's game, but she still members the surprise trip to the cinema.
