The only part of this I really disagree with — I love the MCU, but yeah, it’s not great if that’s the only kind of movie most people see — is Scorsese’s dismissal of home streaming as an alternative to “the big screen”. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/04/opinion/martin-scorsese-marvel.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepage …

Plus the movie theater’s devotional social contract (no looking stuff up on phones, etc) makes for a categorically different experience than a home cinema.

We are not at a loss for curators; they just don’t need to be bundled with physical spaces anymore. The great value of viewing in a room full of strangers I buy for comedies, otherwise ... I can’t gainsay your personal experience, but I don’t really see it.

Comedies are a big part of cinema! I'd also suggest horror movies & thrillers benefit from collective viewing -- Scorsese specifically mentions in his op ed the experience of seeing Psycho in a full house on opening night.
