The Streaming DIFFERENCE between 2019 and 2020 is $6.5 Billion. The research found that the box office earnings fell to $2.2 billion in 2020, down 80 percent from 2019’s $11.4 billion.** That's a difference of $9.2 Billion in 2020 Box Office from 2019. A $6.5 Billion Increase in Streaming and a Decrease of $9.2 Billion in Box Office is $3.2 Billion. So between Streaming and Box Office HOLLYWOOD still Lost $3.2 Billion.
