PAY ATTENTION TO MOVIES RELEASED ON STREAMING PLATFORMS
Summary
Some of the more recent film releases are being questioned as to whether they ever really did get released as they haven't been released in movie theatres but instead on online streaming platforms such as Netflix. For example, Adam Leon's "Tramps". Some of the films released only to streaming platforms are losing the opportunity to be considered for awards as they don't fit the traditional definition of a film release which is for it first to be in cinemas. Netflix is acquiring some very ambitious films nowadays, with first releases from the likes of Adam Sandler.
Key Statistics
- Maya Vitkova’s film “Viktoria,” which took in $11,314 at the box office
- Approximately 1 thousand people are likely to have seen Viktoria in the theatre
My Opinion
I don't see why the traditional film release is still being regarded as being released in the cinema as with the dramatic changes of NDM this is no longer the case it is Netflix and LoveFilm going forward for film releases. Why do films have to loose their release status just because they are released online rather than in the cinema? The industry needs to adapt in terms of releases and fast.
