Its long been a puzzle to me as to how the weekly cash income of a movie is decided.
I understand that if a movie opens to an 55m opening week etc, but how is this calculated?
What account is taken of Orange Wednesdays in these figures?
Do these count towards the final weekly figures?
And what about the World of Cine Unlimited cards.
If so, how?
Do Cineworld pay the studios an amount depending upon numbers of bums on seats etc?

Long time reader, first time writer, Love the site.
I just have one question for you whats your favourite cheese?
