Is Cinema Dead?

Pros
  • 3D film are bringing the audience back to the cinema as they cannot expierience this feature at home.
  • Orange Wednesdays bring people back to the cinema as you only have to buy one ticket and can get another free.
  • You can spend Sainsbury's Nectar points to buy cinema tickets.
  • You can spend Tesco Cub Card points to buy cinema tickets.
  • See Films First also offers exclusive access to memeber who are signed up to see a film before it premiers to the public in the cinema.




Cons
  • Love Film offering a DVD rental service in which you order DVD's and they are sent directly to you and then you send them back once you have finished with them. Love Film is only a small subscription a month and allows the viewer to watch the film in the comfort of their own home.
  • Sky Movies also allows you to watch the film in the comfort of your own home for no more than £5 and you can have as many people as want watch it for that price.
  • Being able to download the movies illegally via torrents has also 'killed' the cinema as these sites are widely available to the public. However the films are not good quality and have peoples heads in. Some internet providers are cracking down on illegal film fownload e.g. Virgin.
  • Dvds/Blu-Ray sales
