Summer Box Office Meltdown: Why the Movie Business Is Running Scared
Just checked the history of Bond films.
Soaring budgets, declining domestic receipts, foreign box office making the money.
They’ve written off the US market.
It’s a choice.
Hah! Our summer viewing means binge watching Burn Notice. We’re now up to season 4. It’s one of those rare shows that both my wife and I really love watching.
Movies have gotten ho-hum. If we want to see anything we stream off Amazon prime when it’s free. Frankly, I’m surprised more people don’t do that. We have a better screen and sound system than our local theater, the floor isn’t sticky and there are no parking and traffic hassles.
And the theaters don’t sell ladyfinger popcorn, and many don’t serve beer.
