The streamer's co-CEO spoke at the Royal Television Society's London Convention 2024 about how Netflix can't have too much content given eclectic tastes and shared that his wife "loves" 'Emily in Paris.'
Of course the co-ceo of Netflix is going to say to release on streaming. Why listen to someone who has a very vested monetary interest in not having theatrical releases?
I mean I don’t disagree with him. I’ve only ever wanted to go to the theaters for a big action movie or something like that. I don’t see the point to watching a quiet, slow burn drama or rom com in a movie theater. It’s a waste.
I would say a good 50% of movies that go to theaters, should not be there and would be fine releasing on streaming
