Netflix, Amazon Movies Barred From Toronto International Film Fest's Industry Screening Venue

Exhibitor Cineplex says only TIFF titles that respect"the traditional theatrical model" may play on Scotiabank Theatres screens.

Cineplex, the Canadian exhibition giant that runs Scotiabank, told TIFF this year that Amazon and Netflix titles it programmed for a short run in movie theaters, or none at all, have been barred from its multiplex on Richmond Street that hosts industry and film critic guests. The new P&I policy has forced the Toronto fest to shift industry and press-only screenings for Amazon and Netflix titles two blocks over to Bell Lightbox on King Street.

What a load of crap

Resistance to change and refusal to adapt has doomed so many businesses....

There’s something ironic about a theater that regularly makes patrons climb up a broken multistory escalator to see screenings cry for the preservation of the theatrical model

Crazy

I’m sure consumers will amend their consumption habits to reflect the value and importance of the theatrical release model.

Absolutely rubbish.

If they made a print to be shown in a theater, isn't that showing a measure of respect for the theatrical model?
