Spider-man is tearing it up in theaters.
Spider man is, but hardly any other movies are.
There was a podcast I was listening to earlier this week and it was an interesting take on what's going to happen to AMC. Basically, movie industry based on current trends is going to move to mega movies only showing in theaters, the remaining movies are going to get pushed straight to digital release (HBO/Prime/Neflix/etc). It was kind of alarming as what they are saying is it's going to deeply impact stocks like AMC because outside of Spider-Man, there is no other revenue coming in. Will be interesting to see how this shakes out.
Below link is to this week's box office sales. None of the other movies released this week are above ~$15 million. Spider man is at $385 million. Kinda proves their theory - unless its a blockbuster, people aren't going to the movies. What that means to me is this little run right now is good, but I'd be getting out of AMC until the dust settles.
