2009, we already beat last year, we already passed 1996, and are on par to beat the previous 5 years... end of the year releases will make or break it.

The number of increased releases is re-released shows, even only showing in one theater, it's marked as a release. The growth in $1 theaters, those are releases that make far less average income and really add to the numbers of off crap movies to watch.

I find it ironic how many people use the excuse that a movie is "crap" as a reason to pirate it. Ok if it's "crap" why would one want to watch it in the first place? Because you got it for free? If I gave you a plate of dog shit would you eat it as long as I said it was free? Of course not. If you want to watch a movie and especially if you want to own it then you just gave it VALUE. Since it has VALUE then it's worth PAYING for. |
