Good find, seems that the industry is doing just fine:
In 2016, U.S./Canada box office was $11.4 billion, up two percent from $11.1 billion in 2015. Admissions, or
tickets sold (1.32 billion), held steady compared to 2015.
Moviegoer Trends
More than two-thirds (71%) of the U.S./Canada population – or 246 million people – went to the cinema at
least once in 2016, a two percent increase from 2015. Frequent moviegoers – individuals who go to the cinema
once a month or more – continue to drive the movie industry, accounting for 48 percent of all tickets sold in
the United States and Canada.
The number of frequent moviegoers increased in 2016. However, the number of tickets purchased by frequent
moviegoers decreased. This was offset by an increase in the tickets purchased by occasional moviegoers
(moviegoers who attended less than once a month).
