I kind of get the feeling that CEOs and corporations see the writing on the wall in terms of the world, economy, and climate change. We're headed for some really extreme times in history and I think these guys have the mindset to just go full balls and try to scam as much wealth out of humanity as possible before the shit hits the fan. The greed I see from companies these days is very blatant and in your face, they don't try to hide it anymore, it's all very "fuck you, pay me" and it's virtually every company you can find these days, they're all doing everything they can to fuck everyone out of one more penny.
Movies have been very expensive in the short term period after theatrical release, that's why blockbuster would charge $60 if you lost the tape, it's how much they sold to rental stores for before wide release. This higher price is absurd to me but to the studios it's a premium for all the hype they built up, the price will come down after a few months. They are still working out the new models and testing the waters to see what floats.
