Cyprian > if anyone dared to joke about shoah business, shrill cries of 'anti-semitism' would flood the airwaves.

But it's not a joke, it's a fact -- the business is a disaster.

>>Ticket sale revenues dropped five percent in the first 11 months of 2005 while the number of Americans going to the cinema fell by 6.2 percent compared with the same period in 2004, according to box office trackers Exhibitor Relations Co Inc.
