And that can all change this year or next, or the one after that. Just because it has increased from pandemic lows doesn't mean it will continue to increase forever.Well all we can go by now then is that theater attendance has been on an increase per release since 2021.
In the interim I do agree that studios will try to find a happy balance between streaming and theatrical by moving releases back and forth between each. How that will affect the long term, we don't really know yet. It may end up being a self fulfilling prophesy that ends up causing lower box office overall, leading to more streaming releases, etc. Only time will tell.And Disney, not even close to ready to stick to streaming as a primary income when they took a Disney Plus series and are rushing to give it a theatrical release this year.
