We touched on this the other day, but the scenario's changed a bit. Paramount upped the ante with an alternate $ 100 billion dollar buy-out offer. Both Paramount and NetFlix are, of course, streaming services, so it's a nothing-for-nothing deal no matter who gets control. One way or another, you're gonna pay a lot more for your entertainment., and you can forget about the $6.00 sodas and $9.00 popcorn, it won't be too long beofre all new release movies go straight to streaming, bypassing theaters entirely. That's almost a given.
Wanna see a new movie? You can watch it at home for $20.00 and make your own popcorn. Why $20.00? That's my guess at a high price because the streaming service can't control the number of watchers present, like they could with theater tickets sold individually...
