Hi All,
i did look to see if this matter has been asked and could not find anything so apologies if i have duplicated.
Like most i expected to of already been to the Cinema at least 5 times by now to watch NTTD if the original release date had stayed the same. obviously in these uncertain times i understand and agree with the change in release date however without being too dramatic and without a vaccine and the terrible loss of life i ask myself how confident will i be going in a cinema when the time comes.
I love the premier .. the cast and huge stars taking selfies and interacting with the thousands of fans who are packed in having waited hours for a glimpse of the actors as they attend the Royal Premier, but what was once expected, the world has changed and things that would once of been considered normal like shaking hands and being close together will not return for a long time even after lock down is lifted. Potentially it could well be another 12 months if not longer before any type of event like this would be considered.
So the question i have been asking myself and now asking you all is would you pay to get the film now and if so how much ... Sky Box Office? 4K Ultra Blue Ray release? Amazon Prime or through the official website? I am fully aware of how reliant Cinema's are on such a huge event and i would still go and watch on a big screen even if i had seen it.
I also feel it would be a positive move and for a change some good news to share.
I know that you will all have your own take on this and look forward to discussing.
Stay Safe and Be Well.
Regards
Tony James

I'd happily pay to see NTTD now. Going to the cinema is low on my priorities even when things turn for the better.
However, it would depend on the price and if it was a VOD rental or a purchase (digital or DVD/Blu-ray). I see some recent releases are available to rent these days, such as The Invisible Man, which I can rent for 189 Norwegian kroner (£14,60/$18,30). That's too much for a rental, IMO – even for a Bond film. I wouldn't pay more than the cost of a cinema ticket to see a (rental) film at home. If I could purchase the film for the same price, then I'd definitely do that.
VOD works for family films....but not on this fare. I think a large amount of the population who would pay to see this film - namely teenage, 20/30-something men - will find a way to pirate it.
Plus older people who grew up with Bond and in their 60, 70, or 80's don't even know what iTunes is...
I know I would admitting anything else would be a lie, but upon release in the cinema I would still go and see it again.
Yes, negative interest rates have come into play here and there, so why not?
50,000 baht
I’d buy this for 48 hour rental at a $100.
I always cringe when i hear stories of people clapping and cheering in the theater at certain movies.I mean seriously! Thats embarassing.
Same here.
So they'd get 10 times more the price of a single cinema ticket per person. Assuming everyone would be willing to pay that price, of course.
as I would.
I’ll pay 100£ for a weeks rental.
All right 20,000 baht
There should searchs of alternate ways to show the movie on the big screen.
2-3 months the movie normaly get is by far not long enough, also there need now two rooms for each movie. 6 rooms for three movies. NTTD, Soul and another movie. If there delay Top Gun 2 to second weak of January then there can give NTTD 4 rooms. There should take a look or there can show the movie three times a day. Example for 12.30 - 15.30 / 16.00 - 19.00/ 19.30 - 22.30. That's 163 minutes for the movie, 20minutes of cinema comercials and 27 minutes for cleaning/set up the next screening. Cinemas wil possible whant to close the doors before 23.00.
And I.
