I'm not at all a Nolan apologist, and I wish his comments didn't sound so babyish, but I do understand what he's saying. Studios prioritizing streaming is going to change things—in some positive ways, but a lot of negative ways for those of us who still love going to the theater. I agree with him that WB is making a large decision based on a very abnormal year. I also feel bad for him for the pressure he was under this year with
Tenet, which was never going to be The One Movie to determine whether everyone in the world still likes going to the theater.
Wonder Woman would have been a much clearer indication, because it has a bigger built-in fanbase and it's something whole families could go to. Even Bond would have been a better choice than
Tenet, if there was only going to be one major release in these months.
Closer to home for this forum, though, I expect that instant streaming will lead to the end of physical media releases, so our steelbook days may be numbered.
These are my very subjective thoughts, which are probably wrong.
