Physical media provides a sense of ownership and control over one's film collection, allowing for uninterrupted access to favorite films.
The resurgence of physical media is evident in niche markets, such as horror collectors, who value the tangible and exclusive nature of physical releases.
The future of cinemas is uncertain, with the rise of streaming and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic leading to a potential decline in traditional theater experiences.

The film industry has fallen prey to the same fate as video games, with the availability of streaming services and superior technology at home.
The rise of the internet and social media has led to a loss of mystery and excitement around films, with constant exposure through trailers, TV spots, and behind-the-scenes content.
The cost of film production and the lack of profitability in the streaming model have led to stagnation and a lack of innovation in the industry.
The streaming model has become fragmented, with the need for multiple subscriptions leading to viewer fatigue and a decline in the communal experience of watching films.
YouTube has failed to adequately support creators and provide a sustainable model for independent filmmakers, leading to a lack of incentive and opportunities for smaller channels.

"The video games had that accelerated lifestyle. And I think you should look at that if you're looking at how movies are going to go."
"There's no mystery around film stars, there are no film stars, not really, not anymore."
"The answer is stop spending hundreds of millions of dollars. You don't need to. The technology is there to make this stuff a lot cheaper."
