Netflix on its own is an international sensation. It’s managed to shut down a number of businesses, one of them being Block Buster. Now Netflix is aiming even higher targeting their biggest competition.
Netflix has carefully analyzed their statistics and have come up with a new strategy that can potentially take over the movie industry.
Adam Sandler has signed a deal with Netflix, promising to produce and star in four feature films. This is an investment that Netflix is certain will be worth it, and an offer Sandler could not resist.
I strongly agree with Netflix’s proposal to Sandler. They are guaranteed success.
Sandler is an all time favourite comedian actor who consistently delivers. Research also proves that the public loves Adam’s movies as they are continually watched over and over again. I for one am very excited to see this production.
Netflix has also allied with the Weinstein Company so that they can release the sequel to the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on the same day as in theatres. Majour theatre chains are feeling very threatened and refuse to screen any movies that would be released digitally on the same day. Netflix is giving them a run for their money.
This will cause a huge problem to traditional distributers that can eventually toss them out of business. Unlike illegal torrent sites, Netflix is totally a legit service that allows you to watch movies just about anywhere on your device at an affordable price. No more overpriced popcorn and expensive movie tickets. Although it would be sad to lose the opportunity to watch a movie on the three story tall screens, if theatres don’t spice up their game, they could face a fatal loss.
