    The number of moviegoers has decreased by half since the beginning of the century, yet the film industry's profits have increased by 40%. While cinemas have become more technologically advanced entertainment venues, their attendance continues to decline each year. This is likely due to decreasing film quality and an industry focus on commercial success over artistic merit. Large advertising budgets indicate a need to make films profitable rather than focusing on quality, which may explain why fewer people are interested in or feel movies are worth their time and money. In the end, films should inspire and provide new perspectives, but the industry increasingly prioritizes profits over the more important goals of quality and inspiration.

    WRITING

    The number of spectators in cinemas and theatres has been reduced by half since the
    beginning of the century but, suspiciously enough, film industry has seen a rapid increase of its
    profit, up to a 40%. What is the truth behind this fact?

    To start with, when looking at the amazing technology we have developed in the audio-visual
    field as a result of the increasing use of digital devices, there is no doubt cinemas have become
    more of a sophisticated place where you can enjoy a film at its maximum potential. Moreover,
    new cinemas are specifically designed to enhance your senses and keep you in constant tune
    with the movie and the feelings it may transmit. Nevertheless, it seems all these technological
    advances do not contribute to the rise of cinemas popularity. In fact, its numbers are
    decreasing year by year. It does not seem wrong to state that quality of films may be the main
    problem, as well as the industry behind it.

    Furthermore, the amount of resources film industry invests on advertising is certainly an


    accurate indicator of the situation of actual movies, which for the same reason they can not
    rely on its art, value, and quality of interpretation, must be largely financed in a commercial
    way in order to keep it profitable. Then again, this attitude shows more of a compromise with
    movie profit rather than quality, which may be the main reason each day less people are
    interested in watching a new movie, or even find them to be worth their time and money.

    In a nutshell, movies are and have been a great way of inspiring people, making them question
    everyday life issues and showing new perspectives. Such values shouldn´t be degraded by a
    film industry increasingly interested on profits and forgetting about what is more crucial: the
    quality and ability to inspire.
