New in cinemas: why do movies usually come out on Thursdays?
In Germany, Thursday is the day the cinema opens – until almost 20 years ago it was different. The films started on Friday. The German film distributors wanted to bang the advertising drum with the early transfer. In the age of the internet and social media, the first weekend more and more often decides whether a film is successful or not, and thus the future fate of a film.
How long do movies stay in cinemas?
How long or short a movie stays in the cinema depends largely on the box office result. If the halls are sold out for a long time, the film logically stays in the cinema for a long time. Cinema operators often present the films in large halls and then move to smaller ones over the course of the week – as soon as interest wanes. And, of course, new films are added every week that should also be played. The number of screens is limited.

The film distributors who rent the films to the cinema operators have a say. Sometimes they impose conditions according to which a film must be shown for a minimum duration. The conflicts between distributors and cinema operators are increasing in the highly competitive cinema market.
Why are movies on TV shorter?
Some film fans may have already noticed that movies on the TV at home are almost always a little shorter than in the cinema. That’s not necessarily because it’s a cut version. The decisive factor is the transmission standard, which differs between cinema and German television.
Only 24 frames per second are shown on the screen, compared to 25 frames on TV.
