Why do cinema ticket sales drop?

Several factors can cause a drop in cinema ticket sales. Poorly received films, competition from other entertainment like streaming, or even major sporting events such as the FIFA World Cup, which diverted viewers in this case, can all reduce attendance. This directly impacts a studio's revenue from film releases.
