The International Box Office Discussion Thread

Recommended Posts

Do you know why the ticket prices are so high now? Are they expected to continue rising?

ATP is high because the cost of theatres is high, due to the costliness of real estate. And with not enough people going to the theatres, they have no choice but to rise the price.The ATP could reach $10 in the next few years. (now at about $6)
