| | Big Movie Zone -- Big Movie Box Office |
 | | While some Big Movie DVDs and home videos have done surprisingly well, and the market is increasing in size of late, these sources cannot yet be considered significant revenue streams for an average Big Movie filmmaker. |
 | | In Big Movies, approximately 80% of gross ticket revenue is kept by theaters, with only 20% going to the distributor and producer. |
 | | In the Big Movie business, on the other hand, theaters must purchase the pricey prints (around $25,000 for a 2D print, and $50,000 for 3D), often up front, and handle most or all marketing for the film locally, out of their own budgets. |
