Cinema Owners Laugh at DVD's

Filmmakers and exhibitors alike are not afraid of the loss of audiences for movie theatres. In fact, they don't feel the pressure at all. Really? Hmmmmm. "Every decade or so, some new technology is supposed to be the death of the movies," says John Fithian, president of the theater owners association. "Television, videocassettes, the Internet. We're still around." M. Night Shyamalan, director of Signs and the upcoming Lady in the Water says "What some people don't get is that a movie makes a much stronger connection with audiences than DVD's." says His film is due in theaters July 21. So, who will prevail in the cinema vs. DVD battle? Time will tell!
