In the summer of 2022, Joe Russo, of directorial duo The Russo Brothers (Avengers: Endgame, You, Me and Dupree), described movie theaters as "elitist". I took that comment personally.

This video unpacks the costs of movie theaters against the costs of streaming, and makes a case for the continued necessity of theaters and the escapism they provide.
