“If a movie is made independently and only sells to a streamer, then fine. But I don’t want to make something where [streaming is] the end-all,” Olsen said.

exorbitant*

But yes, I agree, on all accounts. Don't forget about when all the good seats are taken and now you have to sit in the front row and crane your neck up, left or right to see the damn screen. I haven't been to a traditional theater since COVID. Much rather watch it from the comfort of my home and lounging recliners, while eating and drinking whatever I want, purchased from the grocery store for $5-10. It's a much better experience for much less money.

IDK... Movie theatre prices are pretty exciting. I mean, they make my heart race every time I see them!
