Why this petition matters

Warner Bros. will simultaneously release 2021 movies on HBO Max and in theaters

- NBC News

Today, Christopher Nolan criticized Warner Bros for this action and said: They don’t even understand what they’re losing. A large number of directors and actors objected (Like Denis Villeneuve, director of Dune, and even Independent Cinema Alliance and AMC) but Warner Bros hasn't spoken out yet. I strongly object too. Releasing 17 movies (Including movies like Mortal Kombat, Godzilla vs Kong, Space Jam: A New Legacy, The Suicide Squad, The Matrix 4, Dune, and eleven more) on HBO MAX at the same time they release in theaters will have a massive negative impact on theaters and even if the pandemic ends, we don't know if the cinemas will make it or not. But wait. it gets worse:

MoffettNathanson, a media-analysis firm, estimated WarnerMedia could be sacrificing $1.2 billion in box-office revenue annually, a figure the studio hopes to make up through increased subscriptions for HBO Max.

- CNN

Not only Warner Bros doesn't pay enough attention to theaters, but they are also trying to make up for this action's economic damage. Moviegoers aside, this decision will have negative impact on the income of directors and actors too. This is a total lose-lose situation. Even for Warner Bros. That being said, let's show that just like Christopher Nolan, we are not happy with this action neither.
