In recognition of the fact that nobody is allowed to go to the cinema anymore, Universal pictures will allow people to rent new movies as soon as they’re released.
The first title this move will apply to is DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls World Tour, which will be released on Friday 20 March and will be immediately available to rent for, for 48 hours, 20 bucks or local equivalent. Prior to this, movies tended to have a cascade of commercial windows, with the price reducing over time, but the streaming era has made that model look increasingly obsolete.
