John Marston Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) They no longer write any yearly preview (the last time they did was for 2013 I believe) and now they no longer seem to do previews of the upcoming months or an article summing up how the last month went overall. Why? Forgot to mention how they no longer have box office for many countries now Edited April 25, 2015 by John Marston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The site hasn't been the same post the BOM shutdown scare in October. They also lost a lot of sources for foreign box office results and it seems like the site may have let go of employees or something (just guessing here). Ray Subers hasn't even been particularly active on Twitter either in recent months. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Ray is putting out far fewer articles. However, the important stuff is still all there. Don't complain until that's gone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I mostly go there for charts This. Even though the site has fallen off in other areas, it's still easily the best and most easy-to-navigate source of box office info that there is. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieGuyKyle17 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 The site hasn't been the same since its shut down scare and ever since its just been slowly going down the drain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDodsen Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 BOM's biggest mistake was shutting down the Forums... not saying this site's not bad or anything (even though I am very infrequent here... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm just glad it still exists. The amount of data on that website is great for anyone who wants to research and compare different movies through history. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Box office Mojo glory days was around 2004-2007 After that blah. The site got a lot of publicity from the box office run of Passion of The Chirst. Which apart from Avatar and Titanic was one of the closely watched Box office runs by the media and public.

lilmac Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Ray's departure would explain the apparent decline in data (just going off of what some of you are saying). Once he's replaced, I imagine they'll get back on sure footing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 The answer is simple, just hire me to replace Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
