> As a live theatre industry professional, movie theaters will go the way of theatre, They've already gone that way, in part, particularly during the 60s, 70s and 80s when a large share of cinemas closed. Then it sort of stabilised, at least in terms of screens: while cinemas kept on closing, some others got bigger. But those bigger ones rely on the business of blockbusters. Maybe it will start dropping again and turn the way you foresee, I don't know.
