The turnaround to the streaming services doesn't seem that long anymore. There's so many mediocre movies, that I'm willing to wait to see until they hit Crave/Prime/Etc..
I'll still see a sci-fi blockbuster like Dune 2 though. When a movie like Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire gets a lackluster review, I'm waiting for the free stream.
My cable bill is the same as it was pre-streaming services now. So I'm definitely re-allocating funds from going to the movies to paying for streaming services. I'd be a lot less likely to do so if I didn't get 2-3 new theatre level movies on each service every month.
