The Death of Cinema
Stick a fork in the movieplex because that is so 90s.
Check the numbers. Box office revenue is down nearly 20 percent and the take has declined for nearly 19 weeks in a row. Thats right, its been almost 5 months since one week outperformed the last underperforming weak. Oops, I meant week. Now lets look at Box Office Mojo's yearly numbers. 2005 to date. 3.8 billion to 2004's 9.6 billion. In 6 months the box has to go over 140 percent to make 9.1 billion. Thats right folks, the cinema has to gain over 150 percent in the next six months or face its first losing year in over a decade. And this is all with the average cost of a ticket being 4 percent higher than last year.
Why is the movie industry performing so poorly in the cinemas?
