While the tone at CinemaCon, a weeklong gathering of theatre owners, exhibitors and all the various companies involved in movie theatre operations and experiences, is usually overwhelmingly positive, Aronson took a more sober approach.

The domestic box office has improved yearly since the pandemic but is still about USD 2 billion, shy of where the business was pre-pandemic. 슬롯사이트œOur industry is at a turning point,슬롯사이트� Aronson said. 슬롯사이트œIt's quite clear that moviegoers still love going to the movies, but we as an industry must do better.슬롯사이트�
