>What will it take for you to go back to the cinema anon?
Regularly showing something good for a decent price. In the town I used to live in the local theater had a classic film feature every week. I went almost every week and could by a ticket, popcorn, and soda for less than $20.
The problem with movies, and theaters is that they each played their end against the middle. Movie studios started chasing the global market with dumb CGI extravaganzas leading to fewer good middle brow movies. And at the same time the theatre owners just kept chasing revenues by upping the price of tickets and concessions. So now we have fewer movies which are worth watching (much less paying for), and going to the theater is so expensive that it is now an event to go.
Except as a value proposition, I don't think streaming has anything to do with it; TV was never a problem, after all.
