Are we allowed to say this on the internet? As someone who liked Knives Out, this was hella disappointing. It’s not clever to lampshade the use of the obvious suspect twice in a row.

Reply to comment by Hi_Im_Ken_Adams in Amazon to invest $1 billion yearly to produce movies for theaters by Familiar-Turtle

This makes sense. Disney & Paramount seem to be maximizing their earnings with this approach as Marvel & Top Gun have demonstrated. Keeps talent happy as well.

Netflix releasing Glass Onion briefly in theaters seems to be along the same lines.

I love what HBO Max did during the pandemic with their films, but the BO failure of everything except Dune and Godzilla/Kong seems to indicate it’s a losing business strategy.
