  1. Similar moves will become increasingly necessary for theater chains to continue to exist and for the large studios to compete against the likes of Netflix, Apple TV, etc. Studios need the theaters to remind people of the experience of leaving the living room, and the theaters continue to need help. Regarding Indy, bummer of a location choice.
