Hollywood is still making money

My guess is Hollywood is making more than ever between:

* domestic box office
* foreign box office
* merchandising
* DVDs
* selling rights for pay-per-view
* selling rights for cable movie channels (HBO, Cinemax, etc)
* and the huge money-maker no one talks about - selling rights to cable & network TV

Hollywood losing money? Not a chance.

They couldn't make crummy movie after crummy movie and still be in business with out all those other outlets.

Exactly. What this article is actually about is a make or break year for theaters.

If you have a use for buildings with multiple medium-sized halls with angled floors, you may be able to buy a lot of real estate cheap in the coming few years.
