It is much more convenient to watch a movie on television or computer than buy a ticket and go to the cinema. In the nearest future the popularity of cinemas will drastically decline. Do you agree or disagree?
It is thought that because of the advancement in technology, one can prefer to watch a film on a small
screen
than a bigger screen
. Therefore
, it is more likely that people will shun to visiting the multiplex, and its popularity will diminish. I completely agree with this
opinion and think that it will be hard for movie
halls to sustain in the future.
First
of all, the latest advancement in technology called OTT
(over-the-top) platform
, specially designed for a smaller screen
gadget like TV and laptop, has changed the way we used to watch a picture. This
is because it provides a range of latest movie
options with a high-resolution screen
, and with less annual subscription fees. As a result
, it is usual to witness a decline in the number of people visiting a Cineplex. For example
, the OTT
platform
has launched a website called Netflix, which provides Hollywood and Bollywood movies for all ages of groups with various Genres. That’s why people choose to watch a movie
on the OTT
platform
at home, rather than go to the cinema.
Secondly
, nowadays it has been seen that movie
ticket prices are way more expensive than it used to be. The reason for this
is that they are facing a tough time surviving in the market, and because of the launch of the OTT
platform
, they have left with no other option. As a consequence, people avoid going to cinemas and opt to purchase an OTT
platform
family annual plan for the whole family. For instance
, the Cineplex Entertainment Company has reported on their official website that its sale goes down by 58% after they have hiked movie
ticket prices.
To conclude, I strongly contend that the OTT
platform
will surely overpower the advantage of the bigger screen
of the movie
theatres. Hence
, we could see a day when people completely stop going to the multiplex.Submitted by Parth Patel on
