That is always the story here in India.Most areas except big cities get less than 20 hours of electricity.... some even as less as 10-12 hours!But 24 hours internet connection.

At least we don't have shootouts in theaters.Human life is more important than box office.

Human life is so important that you guys put Internet access as a higher priority than electricity.

only because the average Indian can't afford to buy guns.

You are being ridiculous. india has among the lowest ticket prices(I think average is < $2). despite that it hit $1.4B last year.Hollywood marketshare is low as there are so many local languages. They prefer local movies to hollywood without china like protection. That IMO is the right way to do things.http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/global-box-office-china-international-growth-326-303324

On the contrary, bigger percentage of people have guns here (legally and illegally both).I have one myself.

Fast internet access is relatively costly, so it is available 24 hours-a-day to those who can afford it.Electricity is very cheap, and there is more demand than supply. Electricity charges vary from $0.02-$0.10 depending on rural/urban areas per unit of electricity.

5 years ago if you said any Batman movie would make a billion, I'd say you were crazy. Back to back Bat movies with over a billion is great, especially good in this one's case because it doesn't have the Joker or a dead guy to boost the gross.

It's back!
