The summer film distribution in the United States and Canada ended with cash fees of $ 3.67 billion almost a year ago. At the same time, the audience was slightly more: participation increased by one million people. However, studios were not enough of these figures – expectations were higher and expert estimates were claimed to have been promised $ 4.2 billion in record.
The main hit of the season is “Lilo and Stich from Disney,“ Superman ”from Warner Bros. and“ Jurassic World: Renaissance ”from Universal.

At the same time, the NRG study showed unexpected optimism: Alfa generation (children under the age of 12) is more willing to go to the cinema watching at home – 59% of the participants chose cinema. Experts are sure that the future of the rent depends largely how studios learn to work with this young audience.
