Movies have been around for years but they have been ever changing. It first started with stop and go films that were 2-D and sometimes had no sound. You would have to read the words that would come on the screen after the person said it. Now these were the movies of the past and most likely will never be seen again, but it shaped movies of the future and the movies yet to happen. Everything has to start somewhere and more often than not the starting point will seem like stick figures compared to the end result. Now these movies started off very simple as I said before, but for their time this was a whole new world being discovered. The movie seen that was just a group of photos flipped through quickly and music playing in the background was beyond amazing for its time. Though these movies do not sound like much it is basically the same as what we experience today with the help of technology. The movie are still structured how we would see a movie today. An intro, plot, and a climax. People during the older movie time really looked forward to this planned out structure of a movie. In today’s world people are a lot less patient. They are looking for a plot and climax very quickly. Not looking for a build up they just want it straight forward.

Back when movies were first created there was a sense of togetherness when going to see a movie. It was a big deal back then. The family would get together and go to a movie theatre to watch the movie. Though we still have movie theatres today they are much different than they experienced at this time. Today, movies theatres are not a big as they were back then. Size wise they are huge, but not a popular. Why go out and pay to leave your house and watch a movie when you can stream it right to your television at the comfort of your couch. Streaming has become the way of the future. Is this because its the new technology that everyone feels they have to be a part of? Or is it just significantly better? In my opinion just the option of having to go out and deal with the public to watch a movie or just sit on my couch in my comfy clothes, I will choose to stay home every time. Streaming surfaces such as Hulu and Netflix have become huge. Both provide the same service but doing so in different ways. Hulu is known more for television shows and live television but also offering movies. Netflix is known for having most movies and their own original shows. In my opinion, movies theatres are on the way out, especially with COVID right now. Do you, the audience, think so as well?
