Steaming platforms are how people want to consume. 4K is the new standard for moviemaking and with at home theaters, movies can look as good as a chain theater screen without the communal experience which many now no longer want. The public wants high resolution and the movie producers know that. More and more studios are looking at releasing movies now theatrically and on streaming platforms at the same time or soon after.
