Yves Bergquist, who works analyzing data at the School of Cinematic Arts at USC, has written a fascinating post about box office performance and reviews. His insights - which are his personal expression and not endorsed by his employer - into Box Office Economics in Turmoil are invaluable and entertaining reading:
"Hollywood CFOs are closing out the Summer [of 2017], and it’s a Lannister kind of party. The worst Labor Day Weekend performance in 17 years; a bloodbath Summer box office in a near 20% retreat compared to 2016; bulletproof franchises underwater; even the mighty Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson took a beating. Summer 2017 was an Irwin Allen disaster."
