Is Streaming Killing Hollywood?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All signs\npoint to cinema attendance being on the drastic decline. A report last year\nrevealed that less and less people are going to cinemas, which could signpost a\ndrastic change for the entertainment industry. As it stands, it has become less\nviable than ever before to create a blockbuster film that succeeds. So much so\nthat acclaimed directors can no longer find the funding to make their films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what the cause for this decline is seems to be in some dispute. Most assume that streaming services such as Netflix are the cause, given their significantly cheaper, more convenient approach. This has been disputed by a recent report, which claims that the two services are not cannibalistic<\/a> . But this report may just be a case of denying the obvious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Streaming Revolution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever since names like Netflix took to the headlines, there are few who haven\u2019t become familiar with the concept of streaming online entertainment. From Bingo Australia<\/a>, to YouTube, to Netflix and Amazon, there are thousands of hours of entertainment<\/a> available, all at a highly affordable prices. Plus there are no restrictions on how this entertainment can be consumed. The consumer has never experienced such freedom and convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cinemas,\non the other hand, struggle to remain viable. They are far more expensive,\ndrastically less convenient, and have little to offer that competes with the\nonline world. Except, of course, big screens. Though that is hardly impressive\nin a world of flat screen TVs that are cheaper than ever before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it\nstands to reason that cinemas are facing an inevitable demise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mutually Beneficial?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One\nreport, by Quantitative Economics and Statistics, claimed that streaming is not\nstealing customers from cinemas, but rather that the two feed each other. But\ngiven the clear reports of waning cinema interest, this seems to be nothing\nmore than massaging numbers to paint a less grim picture. Or is it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ruling Franchises<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though,\nthere are certainly still some franchises that draw the masses to the cinema\nscreens. Smash hits like the Marvel Cinematic franchise continued to see\nmassive success. But these numbers are largely applicable only to the big name\nproductions, with less mainstream productions tending to get overlooked, and\nultimately seeing disappointing numbers. Even the supposedly bulletproof Star\nWars franchise has seen its first flops, which goes to show just how fickle\naudiences can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So at the\nvery least, even if cinemas don\u2019t die outright, there is clearly going to be a\nrevolution in the productions offered to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Shift In Strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So with\nMarvel films, the still going Jurassic Park films, and Star Wars now being the\nbig earners, but with smaller franchises struggling, it seems that cinema may\nnot die, but perhaps undergo a massive revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs\npoint to a shift in the types of films<\/a> that are still viable at cinemas, rather\nthan an outright death of an industry. In turn, streaming services are becoming\nfar more viable for the smaller productions that can no longer draw an audience\nat cinemas. So reasonably speaking, it may be a shift that is better for\neveryone involved. Or at least those production companies that are willing to\nadjust to the times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
