Mark Cuban’s partner in 2929 Entertainment, Todd Wagner, tells Forbes in a fun little interview that he’s not giving up on the idea of simultaneous DVD/theatrical releases. Wagner says multi-platform release in the movie industry is as inevitable as it has been in the music biz, and that the resistance to switching to digital filming is just antiquated thinking by entertainment execs who don’t have an entrepreneurial mindset. All I know is, I can’t remember the last time I set foot in a theater.
Usually the people who don’t go to theaters are the type of people who haven’t seen a new movie since Dr. Zhivago.
