Interesting quote:
To me, the bolded part is kind of backwards. NATO should be proactively doing their best to pressure the studios to maintain their release calendar (if not outright get back to negotiating an end of the strikes), especially after the great week of box office we're currently seeing.Sources tell me that studio executives are hoping to huddle with the National Association of Theatre Owners in an effort to get the word out to SAG-AFTRA how a lengthy strike could really do damage, not just to the motion picture business but also to exhibition itself after cinemas ate dirt during Covid. The news comes as No. 1 theater chain AMC is running out of cash; cinemas can’t go through this again.
