NTTD is basically going to be the 1st really big movie released at the possible height of this scare
theres talk on the nets of even delaying the release. (but probably wont as the corona thing is going to be on going thing for a while). think all the worldwide premiere tour stuff has already been cancelled
I bet Eon wish they'd released it last year now (it was originally scheduled for November 2019)
I guess it will depend on how afraid people will become. At present people seem to roam around like before.
I'm curious to see how the world looks a month from now.
IT's 6 weeks off, but:
Americans Won’t Avoid Movie Theaters, Concerts Unless Coronavirus Spreads (Study) https://www.imdb.com/news/ni62804182
Americans haven’t let coronavirus keep them from concerts, plays or movies, but that will change if the disease spreads to their communities, a new study finds.
And yet, even as the threat of a pandemic grows, half of the 2,200 respondents said they are neither more nor less likely to go to the cinema or to see a play. Forty seven percent of those surveyed said coronavirus had not impacted the likelihood that they would go to a concert or visit an amusement park.
It won't have any affect, but it's convenient for them to be driving this narrative so that they have an excuse for the mediocre box office numbers they will get.
