...folks staying at home will soon realize they don't need a Five dollar coke and a ten dollar bag of popcorn so they can sit behind somebody playing on their cellphone and in front of a couple of noisey teen agers to watch a movie they will be able to see in their own home for less money.

...but, just to show our hearts are in the right place, let's start a gofundme page for left wing hollywood miscreants!

The US box office made just $5K in the last week of March


The same time last year, it made over $200 million.

Movie theaters have shut down due to the coronavirus.

The outlook is grim for the movie industry at the moment, with cinema closures and postponed movie releases causing seismic shifts in the movie calendar. Now we know the box office impact of those measures to help stem the spread of the coronavirus.

From March 20 to 26, the US box office made just $5K, according to Box Office Mojo (via Reddit user u/TheDankestMofo). The same time last year, that number was over $200 million.

The low figures make sense. By March 19, virtually all cinemas had shuttered in North America.

For the first quarter of 2020, the US box office dropped by 25% compared to last year, according to The Hollywood Reporter. That's a drop of $600 million.

James Bond, Mission Impossible 7 and Wonder Woman are among the movies whose releases or productions have been delayed due to the coronavirus. The setbacks have also seen many theaters struggle to stay afloat.
