Shaolin Soccer Full Movie English Dubbed Watch Online Free: A Shift in Movie-Watching Habits'

China emerged as the highest-grossing country in 2021, raking in a whopping $7.3 billion at the box office. Meanwhile, the global box office ended the year with a remarkable $21.4 billion, a staggering 78% increase from 2020. However, despite this impressive figure, many great movies barely made a blip on the radar of mainstream media.

The shift towards streaming has had a paradoxical effect on movies. On one hand, an online release is a wide release, making films more accessible than ever to audiences worldwide. The trend was already underway before the pandemic struck, and it's continued to accelerate since then. However, this increased accessibility hasn't necessarily translated into greater recognition for exceptional films.

Some notable exceptions include 'The French Dispatch' and 'Licorice Pizza,' which have done reasonably well in their wide releases. Yet, few of the year's best films are likely to reach high on the box-office charts. Instead, superhero and franchise films continue to dominate the biggest successes.

The reopening of theaters has brought many great movies back to the big screen, but unfortunately, fewer people are flocking to see them. As Richard Brody of The New Yorker pointed out in his article highlighting the best movies of 2021, 'From an artistic perspective, 2021 has been an excellent cinematic vintage, yet the bounty is shadowed by an air of doom.'

It's clear that the movie-watching landscape is undergoing a significant shift. As streaming becomes the norm, it remains to be seen whether great films will continue to receive the recognition they deserve. For now, fans of cinema can only hope that their favorite movies will find a way to break through the noise and reach a wider audience.
