Entertainment

Each movie that comes to your local cineplex is a unique brand. And the life of these brands initially have very short lifecycles. These days, if a movie isn't a bonafide hit in its first weekend at the box office, it's usually considered a failure. While the movie continues to earn revenue overseas, from pay-per-view and DVD rentals and purchases, its biggest money-making moment passes over a single three-day weekend. One shot to earn blockbuster status.
