To recall, Netflix is also looking forward to buying its own cinemas in Los Angeles and New York to showcase its feature films and documentaries, as per as a report on the internet. Having its own cinema chain would be an interesting move for the company. This move will make it convenient for Netflix to qualify for prestigious awards like the Oscars that require films to have a theatrical release.

With Netflix movie theatres, there might even be the possibility for fans to rent out their own movie theatre to create their own party events. Netflix has started to venture into blockbuster movies with projects like Bright, but they’re a long way from having the kind of content that comes from the major movie studios.
