A24’s “Backrooms” was a box office sensation this weekend, thanks in part to TikTok hype that drove butts in seats at the theater.

Following a rough 2025, ‘Zootopia 2’ marked a rebound for theatrical films performing on Disney+. Will ‘Avatar: Fire & Ash,’ ‘Hoppers’ and ‘Star Wars’ extend the streak?

Paramount & Warner Bros. films produce similar levels of audience demand while Paramount+ and HBO Max share a significant overlap in U.S. customers. Here’s why that’s both an advantage and a challenge.

‘Project Hail Mary’ is a certified box office hit. But the data suggests Amazon should be just as excited for the film’s performance on streaming.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe may be on a box office downswing, but ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ has the potential to revitalize the Disney flywheel.

Theatrical box office remains the goal of all movies. But audience tracking data can help studios optimize for at-home money-making before the film even releases.

Whether you’re a social media creator, legacy film studio, or historic cable brand, reaching and activating audiences has never been so difficult.

Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ will undoubtedly be a box office winner. But can it surpass the moneymaking highs of ‘Oppenheimer?’

Most major films generate strong interest. Only some convert it into urgency. A look at why box office outcomes diverge even when audiences are paying attention.

Hollywood continues to misunderstand the economics of sequels, leaving industry execs scratching their heads over the front-loaded box office.

Not every film needs theatrical urgency to monetize. Audience behavior reveals which genres demand theaters—and which hold value beyond them.

‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ opened 34% smaller than ‘The Way of Water’ at the box office. That’s hardly a disaster, but it’s worth examining further.

Film genres all fall under the larger umbrella of movie entertainment, but do they behave differently when you examine how audiences respond to them? A recent study revealed key advantages and vulnerabilities that offer plenty of practical takeaways.

TVREV and MX8 Labs partnered to survey U.S. viewers about their movie watching habits, and found that 46% prefer to stream flicks at home, while only 15% favor theaters.

The real reason movies tanked this weekend plus Charter and Paramount’s clever bundling play.
