Box Office Blues: Why the Big Screen’s in Trouble
The numbers are in—and they’re not pretty. In this episode of Oh Brother, we dive headfirst into the state of the box office, unpacking the highs, the lows, and the head-scratchers of 2024 and 2025. From surprise hits to blockbuster flops, we break down what’s working, what’s failing, and why audiences might be ghosting the big screen.
We also look ahead to 2026’s most anticipated releases and ask the big questions: Is the theatrical experience on life support? Are studios out of touch? And can the industry bounce back—or is this just the new normal?
Whether you're a film buff, a box office junkie, or just wondering why your local theater feels emptier than ever, this one’s for you.
