Plenty of other small studios could bid on projects but might not profitable for them, or they might prefer to go after more lucrative ad productions etc.. many reason why they do or don't bid on blockbusters.

If there is a hole in the market, there will be someone to step in to the gap.

Anyone can bid on Blockbuster productions assuming you have contacts and know how, and very rarely in the modern VFX landscape is just one vfx studio responsible for a show, so they might come in and just take a slice.

They were large but they were not “owns” every studio other then Framestore and Disney.

Yeah I do wonder, but I think it might be a touch early to speculate…

It will be interesting to hear if this ends up been a global shutdown or just North America.. Either way it sucks for those who have just found out that they have lost their jobs.
