Betting on Movie Winners, Losers

Tue, 10/20/2015 - 11:20 -- Nick Dager

Every year there are a few movies that project as successes, but go down as epic flops.

Who will win the coveted prize of top spot? Which highly acclaimed film will fall short?

Netflix and the Future of Event Cinema

Tue, 09/08/2015 - 09:25 -- Nick Dager

Let’s be clear about one thing: there is no such thing as alternative content. People do not leave the comfort of their homes to pay twenty dollars and more to sit in a movie theatre to watch something inferior or alternative. They gladly pay higher ticket prices because they enjoy events targeted at their specific interests. For big screens, great sound and comfortable reclining seats in a room with like-minded people. For the shared experiences of opera, theatre, concerts, sports, and more: a wide and growing range of programs. These aren’t alternatives to anything; these are events that, until only recently, people could never see this way. And let’s be clear about one more thing: Netflix will play a major roll in the future of event cinema.
