@HonestAlways2 @MikeWallyBears @saylordocs and now you know why the drinks and snacks cost so much.

@thomasdavyd99 @MikeWallyBears @saylordocs Now deduct. Film Broker charges, Use Fee, shipping & handling and of course restocking & Californians sales tax! It eats up almost everything

Netflix didn’t kill movie theaters. $20 popcorn 🍿 and $12 water sealed the coffin.

@FallenLeaf78843 @welp_max Cost of living does not equal the living wage. Working hard gets you nowhere anymore.

@thomasdavyd99 @welp_max You are doing both son clearly . No one has infinite money if you want more then you gotta make solid plans . Besides that no politician can give you that either !! It’s only you and you’re not doing too badly at all . Small steps and focus .

dead ass bc it doesn’t

@grok @MikeWallyBears @HonestAlways2 @saylordocs See, movies most popular viewing times are in the first 2 weeks and the studios are taking 80%-90% of that money. The cinemas only earn more money when the demand for the film decreases.

The detailed research I shared earlier is correct: theaters keep ~40-55% of ticket revenue on average (studios take the rest), with the split heavily favoring studios early (often 80-90% in weeks 1-2) and improving later. The image's point about minimal early-week ticket profit is also true but incomplete—it's why concessions (100% kept by theaters, 80-85% margins) are crucial, making up 35-45% of revenue and driving most profits. Overall net margins hover ~4-10% for chains. Both views align when you factor in the full run and revenue mix.

@FallenLeaf78843 @welp_max I do a lot of work, I expect to be able to book our summer holiday without panicking if I can pay the bills on top of the holiday repayments. I expect not to have to choose between my rent or the social occasion I was invited too.

@thomasdavyd99 @welp_max You got a place to live, internet , food , electric money for clothes looks like you got a lady. What else you expect a palace ?without doing a lot of work ?

@HonestAlways2 @rpjack45_jack @saylordocs It's a global issue

@thomasdavyd99 @rpjack45_jack @saylordocs In England! For fooks sake! America has lot more greedy hands demanding

@FallenLeaf78843 @welp_max Got a job and still don't do anything. Assistant Manager and still can't do anything

@welp_max Get a job and stop being miserable maybe that will solve your problems.

@MikeWallyBears @HonestAlways2 @saylordocs

Movie theaters keep ~40-55% of ticket revenue on average (studios take the rest, split varies by film/week—less early on). They keep ~100% of concessions, with 80-85% gross margins (popcorn/soda costs pennies). Tickets are ~55-65% of total revenue, concessions 35-45% (e.g., AMC 36%, Marcus 44%). But concessions drive most profits due to thin ticket margins after ops costs. Overall theater net profit ~4-10%.

@rpjack45_jack @HonestAlways2 @saylordocs Incorrect. My brother worked at a cinema chain. They earn 10% of the ticket sales and in England the ticket prices are capped at £5. For every person that bought a ticket they made 50p.

@HonestAlways2 @saylordocs They generally get 1/2 of the movie ticket sales

@MikeWallyBears @HonestAlways2 @saylordocs They are 10% of the ticket sales. You sell tickets at $10 and you've earnt $1. The other $9 go to the companies who produced the movie. That's why the snacks and drinks are massively inflated. They pay for the place to stay open.

@HonestAlways2 @saylordocs Are you stupid? They wouldn't be able to stay in business if they weren't profitable.

@saylordocs Do you know why they charge that much??? When you do you'll get it

@HollyGrayle They don't do that though. You're categorising every single Muslim as the same and they're not.

"I'm scared!" they cry, as they rape our little girls and stab our men and blow up tube stations and concerts...

@tomhfh Who the fuck is pronouncing the letter Z as Zed

Why can’t they say Gen Zed like normal people?

Why is SNL ‘UK’ calling Gen Z ‘Gen Zee’?

@iamVickieSmalls @gofckapineapple Yes he did. Tommy Shelby was suicidal from the first ever episode.

@gofckapineapple Tommy Shelby didn’t have to die to be free

“Give my car to Johnny Dogs, My wine to The Garrison pub, My horses to someone who's no work for them, My bullets to someone who's no names to write on them, And my guns to someone who has no use for them. Once, I nearly got fucking everything, but nearly doesn't count. But throughout it all, I had me family. We are reunited now, in whichever place will have us. Burn my body, let the ash blow.”

@bigdogdiggler @aakashgupta These accounts come from her and Christopher Nolan themselves . He ain't lying

@aakashgupta This is all bullshit. It's not a real knife. She never looks at the director. She's a professional actress working with a professional actor. Grow up.

She wasn't acting. And Ledger knew it. Heath Ledger refused to do the full Joker in rehearsals. No voice, no laugh, no mannerisms. Christian Bale confirmed Ledger only turned the character on when cameras rolled. The cast had no idea what was coming. This is the party scene. Ledger is holding a knife to Gyllenhaal's face telling a fake story about his scars. Gyllenhaal couldn't maintain eye contact. She was genuinely trying to pull away from him. She was silently looking at Nolan to stop the scene. Ledger saw her break eye contact and improvised the line "Look at me." Four syllables that turned a scripted scene into something nobody on set could control. Michael Caine forgot his lines the first time he saw Ledger in full Joker. A 75-year-old actor with 130 films on his résumé, and his brain locked up. Caine wrote in his memoir last year that Ledger was "a lovely guy, very gentle and unassuming" between takes. Skateboarded around set. Then the camera turned on and everyone on the crew froze. The film made $1 billion. Ledger won a posthumous Oscar, only the second actor in history to do so. He died six months before the movie opened. He was 28. The performance that redefined what a villain could be in a studio film was built on a simple trick: never let your scene partners rehearse against the real thing. When they finally see it, you get something a director can't manufacture. Actual fear on actual faces. That's what Nolan saw through the monitor. And that's why he didn't say cut.

@miguelitoo___20 @BatmanTweetzz Not in this scene. Have a look at the interviews. This is the first time she'd seen Heath Ledger in character and was genuinely terrified off him. The whole scene is unscripted and improved by Heath. Go have a look at what her and Christopher Nolan had to say about it

@BatmanTweetzz okay so she’s doing this thing called acting

you can literally see her looking at Nolan, waiting for him to say cut.... 💀🙌🏻

@HarryPhillips15 She isn't, by all accounts this was the first scene they shot together and the first time she'd seen him in character. This is a completely genuine reaction from her. It's been well documented since the film came out. She was actually terrified.

okay so she’s doing this thing called acting

@SamanthaTaghoy Read the top of the box love

Dear Cadbury, “From Cadbury this season.” What season? Go on, say it. It’s EASTER. You are selling EASTER eggs for the EASTER SEASON. How dare you profit off a Christian holiday while erasing its Christian origins. They are Easter eggs. It is Easter. Shame on you.

@Rabbit279059 @ThePeakyBlinder Oswald Mosley died in Paris in 1980

@ThePeakyBlinder And where the fk is oswald Mosley death? Trash ahh fking writing

Tommy Shelby is one step ahead, always.

Allah means God, Jesus is in the Qur'an. Muslims and Christians believe in the SAME God but practice their faiths differently.

@haze_2k @edeniclight @rajmuker And what about Goldust?

@edeniclight @rajmuker Except velveteens character didn’t portray a queer

A gay homosexual drag queen wrestler just became the new WWE Evolve Champion ...WWE is slowly turning into a woke company. Very soon, that liberal douchebag CM junk will take over creative from "Noseman" Triple H and then you'll see biological men in women's locker rooms, transgender wrestlers competing against women, Rhea Ripley beating male wrestlers, drag queen-themed PPVs, and more forced inclusivity nonsense. If the Saudis don't buy WWE or if Vince McMahon doesn't come back to save it, WWE will be dead. Mark my words.
