The following is an excerpt from 'Tinseltown Travelogue' by Adryana Cortez
"Since 2002, tickets sold at the domestic Box Office have dropped by over a quarter of a billion seats per year – and that’s while there’s been a growth in the population, and both an increase in the number of movies made per year and number of available U.S. movie screens. The Summer 2017 box office hit a twenty-five year low. And some of the largest theater chains have even turned to God for help – offering up their venues to congregations for Sunday services.
We are at a critical moment in the history of entertainment. Tinseltown’s monopoly on escapism is over. Now more than ever, the audience has options. And if the deplorables aren’t respected – they’d rather watch the industry collapse like a “dehydrated” Hillary than spend one more penny making their enemies richer. Anyone that’s been paying attention has seen this sentiment brewing. We are attempting a course correction. Hollywood…this is your notice."
