I'm sure many movie theaters have taken hits and have suffered.

Even if theaters reopened now, I still wouldn't go . I don't even know what these movies are - never heard of them!! How funny that it only earned "that much" but yah, they should be glad they even got "that much" - and top 5 at that!

@CaptAlbertWhisker Oscars - can you imagine? We should make our own movie now . . . I'd be happy to make even half a million for a super low budget movie!
