In 2017, movie theaters sold 1.239 billion tickets, which is down almost a hundred million from 2016’s 1.315 billion tickets.
Plus, most of the year’s best films never got a wide release or are just getting one this month.
You might think you do, but remember all those times you cancelled plans and snuggled back into your pajamas basking in that sweet sense of relief?
According to Box Office Mojo, 2017 (remember 2017?) had the lowest number of theater ticket sales in 25 years — we haven’t seen numbers like this since 1992.
