This week I'm joined by Fandango managing editor Erik Davis. It's always fun to chat with someone who loves movies more than I do. I have so many fond memories of being at the theater with family and friends. I got to nerd out a little bit with Erik.
But I really wanted to talk to him because I wanted to discuss how the box office is doing. The movie theater industry has certainly had a few big hits in the post-pandemic era, but it hasn't bounced back to what it was before the pandemic took over the world. People seem much more satisfied with their streaming service and staying home to watch a movie from the couch.
Erik discusses what films need to be doing to bring people out for a night at the theater, we talk about recent successes, what he's excited for coming up and we'll dive into Taylor Swift's upcoming film.
