2010 Was Second-Worst Year for the Box Office

Thanks to inflation and the absurd cost of a 3-D movie ticket, box office revenues rose above $10 billion for the only the second time, but only 1.35 billion tickets were sold.

That's the lowest amount of tickets sold since 1.33 were sold in 1996.

Attendance dropped 5.4% last year compared with 2009 and the largest drop since attendance fell 8.1% in 2005.

You'd think that with movies like Toy Story 3, Twilight, Harry Potter and Avatar, the numbers would be a lot higher.
