“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.

I stopped going after the last film I watched in the cinema had people on their phones or others chatting to each other. The cinema etiquette is dead and I prefer to watch it at home these days.

That being said, most films that see a theatrical release are generally better so I don't want that to die. I don't mind waiting to see it on my sofa where I can take a toilet break without ruining it.
