Theaters remain essential for blockbusters, event films, and spectacle-driven titles (action, sci-fi, horror), delivering unmatched immersion, giant screens, premium sound, and communal energy that streaming can't replicate. Hits thrive on theatrical runs, boosting marketing buzz and long-term value.For most mid-budget or smaller films, however, theatrical release has become optional or vanity-driven in 2026. Streaming dominates convenience and revenue for the majority, with shortened windows and home setups rivaling cinema quality.The future is hybrid: theaters evolve into experiential destinations (IMAX, luxury formats, events), while streaming handles everyday viewing.https://www.nigelcamp.com/video-blog/streaming-vs-cinema-film-consumption-trends
