Titles prove lucrative, but more d-cinema theaters needed
The pace of digital cinema installation has accelerated this year, but 3-D cinema may suffer an exhibition bottleneck as more movies are produced in the new format.
That was one of the messages delivered Saturday by Charlotte Jones, senior cinema analyst at Screen Digest, to a Pusan summit on the future of 3-D cinema.
Jones said that 3-D films have proved themselves a lucrative market. Already this year they have generated more than $1 billion at the global boxoffice and exhibitors are able to charge premium prices.
