The metric no one accounts for is popcorn sales, which are quite literally the life blood of movie theatres. I remember watching MoS in theatres and at least half the people had the bucket and cup. That’s pure profit, and the movie was in theatres for so long specifically because it kept selling buckets.

Now I work in a movie theatre (laugh all you want) and no one is buying the buckets, keychains, none of it. It’s all overpriced crap, where as the MoS gear was sublime and simple. Everyone is sneaking snacks into the Superman 2025 showings and theatres are bleeding money because of it.

>Being shook this hard at Superman beating Man Of Steel's domestic that you gotta go to "muh popcorn bucket".

Movie Theaters are hopelessly outdated business models. Adapt or die

>it doesn’t have to make 700m
>it doesn’t have to have 85%+ R
>it doesn’t have to succeed overseas
>it doesn’t have to turn a profit
>it doesn’t have to sell popcorn buckets
We are here
>it doesn’t have to launch a successful shared universe

The guy in front of me when I watched it had a popcorn case with Superman lasering his eyes through it

In my city they sell a subscription thats about the equivalent of 29USD a month that gives you unlimited access to every movie showing at any cinema in the city. Its beginning to catch on cause now you can just drop into the cinema spontaneously whenever you feel like. And if the movie sucks you can go right out and into another theatre and watch something else, its great.

>Superman, the "Man of Steel," is shackled
I wonder why this movie franchise failed.

Gunnjeets in shambles. Indians in Toronto all sneak in snacks btw

That's a pretty good idea, sort of like a 'physical streaming' plan - good if you go to the movies often

Pretty much yeah, i like to go a lot so i also save a ton of money on it. Ive sometimes been the whole day at the cinema from the first showings to the last. After i left tho i realized how much id spent on popcorn so they got me there lol.

Men no longer taking women there will be the death of it. In the past I remember wasting money on movies and popcorn but that’s not needed anymore to be eith women

This. The main reason to get popcorn was to share a bag, your hands would touch by “accident” and she would giggle, and then at the bottom of the bag is by “accident” is your erect cock sticking through a hole you ripped.

Do you hear yourself? It’s a stupid children’s superhero movie. Who fucking cares about its performance compared to some other stupid children’s super hero movie. Get fuckin real

I worked at a theater up until last year and our stockroom was ballooning over the bullshit that they'd send to us that wouldn't sell. Even at a 22-screen multiplex nobody is buying this shit

The metric is funko pops and all that cheap merch now anon

kino

sad how people will accept any scam because they want their capeshit to "win"

in many other places they let people bring whatever food they want into the theater. the ticket is for seeing the MOVIE not being trapped there and buying their stupid merch

That's the idea, they got you in the building

Not an average capeshit enjoyer but I fucking hate the cunts that come in with buckets of popcorn and munch munch munch all the way through the movie because they have to be doing something with their mouths, it's pathetic
