Actually, the theaters do not make much money on ticket sales. The movie distribution companies get the bulk of tickets sales, like 90% for the first week or so, then the ratio goes down from there. That is why you see second run theaters that are playing month old movies for half price. At that point the theater is making 90% and the distribtion co is getting 10% of ticket sales. The concession products are the only way they really make money.
