One of my employees managed a movie theater for 10 years and now it's out of business. The only time they make any money on the actual movies is when they get a movie for relatively cheap because no one thought it was gonna make any money (a "sleeper") and they make money on the tickets because they didn't have to pay that much to get the movie in the first place.
Usually they LOSE money on the movies and make their money with the snack bar, that's correct. They actually bid to get the movies in their theaters...they have to compete against other area theaters. It's pretty crazy.
