I had the same thought in the back of my head. Netflix could spend some money and open a dedicated theater in some small town to just show all new releases for a week or two. It's not much shorter than any major release spends in the theatres, right? Since distribution is digital now, maybe they could just align with a midsize chain and offer a "Netflix Night" once a week or something. Hell, it would probably make money.
