So I was listening this morning to Morning Edition and Frank Deford had a commentary piece. For those that are not familiar with Mr. Deford he is Senior Writer for Sports Illustrated. He has an interesting paradigm for the motion picture folks to consider in relationship to professional sports. If you want to listen to the entire thing click here.
His question is that movies as we know them have reached a point where they may start to have declining sales. It truly is an interesting thought that movies are bent on saying that they have x dollars in sales the past weekend. As a consumer this may just anoy us even more. What would happen as Mr. Giford wonders if they said this weekend we had 1 million people come see this movie. I think many would want to check out the movie and see why people are going. An interesting paradigm to think of. I think the rest of his piece is humorous and you will enjoy the changes he recommends for the Oscars. What changes would you make with the traditional movie theater experience?
