VIDEO : U.S. Movie Attendance for 2017 Falls to 25-year Low

According to Business Insider, the total number of movie tickets sold in the United States for 2017 was 1.239 billion, the lowest figure since 1992. According to Box Office Mojo, the main reason is that people are choosing to stay home and watch streaming content. Jeff Bock, senior analyst for Exhibitor Relations, tells Business Insider, "Studios are lagging behind for the very simple reason that they are relying on retreads and reboots, and most of those aren't being well received."
