Prediction: By the time Beetlejuice comes out, this notion of box office ending will be seen as the over-reaction it is. -- (edited)

When you don't have many movies overall, and Dune 2 is the biggest film of the first 5 months of 2024, of course box office is down.

How people view box office and overall box office revenue will change by the end of summer, and the end of the year. Lots more movies are coming out because we'll be out of the post-strike lull.

- It's not optimism. It's just looking at the release schedule and being realistic. - Inigo May 30, 09:54
we're just now getting films that were in production after covid rules lifted. Going to take a minute. -- nm - Remlik May 30, 09:43
