Na itl be back in a year or so. This trend prediction of people staying home 24/7 is ridiculous. People wont go public gyms because they can have pelatons at home. People wont go back to the office because they have zoom. People wont go to brick and mortar shops because they can order from amazon. People wont go theatres because they can stream. What sad pathetic lives we would lead if we are stuck inside and no need to go out. Going to a gym is "going out". It may be indoors, but it's activity. Going to a theater is "going in". It always was a dead experience. There's no "atmosphere" in a movie theater. Now, a live stage show has "atmosphere", I'll grant that, but seriously, surely you're not saying a movie theater has any atmosphere? But the whiners here don't have to worry. In fact, it will be better for them, when movie theaters are "dead", because then they can be more of a "special group" that meets and has this lonely thing in common, like collectors. It will actually give them a feeling of unity and pride, and why not? Pretty much all of them are already on IMDB where they belong. This will give them a chance to have special get togethers. In time, they'll even have little festivals that new recruits will go to visit. It just means there will be about one tenth the number of movie theaters that there are now, by about 2030.

Ticket sales in China are going up because if you think about hanging around eating ramen in a smog covered city or sitting watching the latest Communist sponsored Chinese war film it makes sense.

Going out to gyms or cinemas is the same thing, its a social event to get you out of your house. |

Yeah same thing happened with me when I went to go see the Playmobil movie. It means NOTHING!!! |

If the cinema experience in the USA is officially dead it's because most of the movies these days are woke shite.

I'm just glad that "X-Men: Apocalypse" (2016) - an epic and brilliant superhero movie - crossed the 500 million dollars mark (543.9 million dollars) and was a big hit all over the world, outgrossing Shang-Chi and Black Widow.
The X-Men movie franchise was the best of the best. Bleak, intense, intelligent and very "sci-fi-like". Blows the MCU and its cartoonish quality away.
Now, the superhero trend is 100% over, and the cinema experience is super-dead (sadly). Thank God, we have the home video releases. Must buy the new X-Men box-set. It's weird that you posted this on multiple boards. It's weird that you're only comparing Apocalypse to pandemic era Marvel movies it outgrossed, as opposed to the what, 20 that destroyed it at the box office? I mean Ant-Man 2 and Thor 2 outgrossed Apocalypse. Oof.

I'm glad. That will give me more incentive. Before 2020 I was seeing around 30 movies at the cinema per year. Sometimes. Here they aren't midnight showings though. They start as early as 6pm on Thursday.

With all the stimulus money given out, movies should be doing better than they are. Almost every other consumer item has rocketed in sales and there are tons of cargo ships backed up in Los Angeles. Plus with the inflated ticket sale prices the numbers coming out so far should be much higher than they are.
Something is wrong- I don't know what, but something is wrong.

Not sure how it can be "fear porn about theaters". Unless I post this: Now, I'm posting FEAR PORN ABOUT THEATERS, bwah ha ha!

I have to say that there has been a noticeable change in my movie-going habits. Before the pandemic it was common for me to go to the movies four or five times a week. I would watch not only the big releases in the multiplexes, but many "minor" movies as well. Now I don't do that anymore - not because I am afraid of going to the movies or something, just because I got used to spending more time at home.
