Long Delays Between Film Releases In Different Regions.

Sorry for the long title but I was talking to a friend about John Wick and possibly seeing it in the cinema. I then found out that it's not out over here in the UK until April when it came out in America in October. Other films that haven't even got a release date over here are Dear White People and Snowpiercer

My question, in this day and age what's the point. I understand delays can be attributed to distributors but with the internet connecting everyone we can watch these films relatively easily. I mean heck I can probably order a copy of John Wick and Dear White People on DVD before they come out over here or wait for it to be streamed on Netflix.
 
Cinema tickets are expensive so it's still worth putting delayed films out there. Pick a week when nothing significant comes out and a week long run for something like John Wick will still make money despite it likely being an easy find on the internet.
