Shortly after A Quiet Place: Day One’s record-breaking opening weekend, there was online outrage after it was reported that the horror movie would be available to watch at home within a month of its cinema release.

This was only an alleged release date and nothing has been confirmed by Paramount even now. It sparked a debate, however, about how the report would impact Day One’s chances at the box office, and a wider one about how movies just aren’t given the time to build their audiences at the cinema.

    At my local theatre the nice seats are $18 and the slightly cheaper normal seats are $15. That’s including fees for times outside of working hours.

    A theatre outing for me and my wife costs more than a 4k uhd bluray for the movies we watch.

    That’s not even including food, which if we go to a theatre we usually bring to avoid the high food prices.
