Summer 2017 roundup
This summer has been absolutely terrible for the movie industry in general -- the worst since 2006. Cinema chain stocks even suffered a huge decline because moviegoing attendance was so low. I'm sure they'll bounce back eventually, because people won't stop watching movies in cinemas, and huge movie hits like Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Thor: Ragnarok will bring in the crowds again; but for now, it looks like cinema stockholders won't be getting their dividends this year.
