I'm not stating that the movie theater system is dead but it's been slowly dying for years, while streaming and the availability of high quality content is more accessible than ever and VOD and SVOD purchases are on the rise.

Still haven't watched Trolls 2, but plan on it. For me, paying $20 or $30 to sit on my couch to watch a movie is well worth it. My kids are getting older, but generally we only go to movies that all of us are going to and when that happens, we walk out of there $100 lighter in the pocket.
