I agree Chuck. I think it might be a bit before we see that happen on a wide scale though... I wish it would be quick.
Economically, I think it will be better $$ for the movie makers, but they will move slowly as to no alienate the current status quo of the movie houses being there distribution. I would guess 5 years might be the point where we a significant shift, but quite a few years beyond that before there is a major change away from the movie houses start going the way of drive-in theatres, which I used to love.

The Salt Lake Film Society screens stuff you don’t get from the major distribution companies. Many very popular movies start in these independent venues. And the best movies I have seen over the past year were screened only there.
