More and more people are buying movie tickets. And cinemas hope a packed summer slate and increased capacity numbers will boost sales even further.
SHOW TRANSCRIPT
After months of temporary closures and dismal box office receipts, movie theaters see a light at the end of this pandemic tunnel.
Thanks in no small part to "Godzilla vs. Kong" -- which turned a healthy profit for Warner Bros. -- more and more people are buying movie tickets.
Shawn Robbins: "There's been a pent-up demand, I think, that's been growing from not just movie fans, but also casual audiences -- maybe people who don't frequently go to the theaters, at least pre-pandemic, but have now been stuck at home for over 13 months."
