Predicting the Future of Cinema
April 3, 2009
ScreenDaily imagines movie going a decade from now.
ScreenDaily’s Jeremy Kay (in his piece In “What will cinema-going look like in 10 years?”) speaks with a series of experts (Ted Mundorff, CEO, Landmark Theatres; Nikki Rocco, President of distribution, Universal Pictures; Ian Pearson, Futurologist; etc.) to get a glimpse into the future of movie going. Some seers see a drastic change. James Stern (Endgame Entertainment founder, chairman and CEO) claims that “[DVD] Windows will collapse and there'll be no lag time - it's all going to be VoD.” Others suggest more classic projections like Nikki Rocco’s prediction: “We would say that quality films, worthy of being shown in the theatrical format certainly should find an appropriate release strategy.” In other words, people will continue to like good movies. Check out FilmInFocus own look at the future in Russell Wintner’s “Coming Soon to a Theater Near You.”
