Publisher's Synopsis

Movie theaters have been serving up laughs, screams, tears and gasps for more than a century. But in an age of screens, streams and smartphones, with seemingly limitless entertainment, does going to the movies still matter? Two journalists raised at the dawn of a never-offline culture explore this question (and a whole lot more) in "What About the Movies?" Serving as both a tribute to cinema and an exploration of its future, it features original reporting - including dozens of interviews with theater owners, industry executives and moviegoers - as well as discussions on everything from movie snacks to the explosion of superhero films.
