At least Paramount is giving the theaters a chance.

If they're not in 4K with Dolby Vision and Atmos, I will be very disappointed.

Call me cynical but that doesn’t seem like a big deal to me. Films like these in normal times have all but finished their box office runs after two weekends.

Don't forget you have 1 week left to take advantage of the Paramount+ $29.99 a year offer. That's only $2.49 a month...

(the ad-free option is available for $49.99/yr)

Agreed. This seems like a good compromise between theatrical and streaming. Though theaters should be looking for a more equitable split at the box office for those first weeks than was being offered by some studios.

I think the deal that Universal made is the best for balancing the desires of all parties. First two weekends are theatrically only, then it gets added to PVOD at $20 a rental, and then eventually goes through the regular home media release cycle. The HBO Max plan of day and date at no extra charge is wonderful for me as the consumer but I understand why everyone isn’t a fan of that, even though I disagree with most of the reasoning against it. But I think the Universal plan is the best acknowledgement of the reality that most movies most of the time are over at the box office after a couple weeks.

This ^ seems to be the case for almost everything that is not Star Wars.

I haven't been to theaters in ages, but I do live near one where I pass by it every time I go grocery shopping. Other than maybe Star Wars franchise films, I rarely ever see the listed movies (on the multiplex's front window) which stay listed for more than 3 or 4 weeks.

Can this be added to an existing subscription?

 

[Josh Steinberg]

It’s worth noting the $29.99 price point is for the version with ads. It’s more for the commercial-free version that also offers 4K/Dolby for select titles.

The only way I could figure out how to do it was to cancel my existing subscription then resubscribe using the coupon code. Not ideal but relatively painless considering the savings.

Is there a deal for the ad free version?
