Your Answer ▼ The bar chart illustrates the proportion of profits made from the seven most popular movie genres in US cinemas in 1995, 2000, and 2005 as a percentage of the total for the industry.
Overall, it is clear that profits from all the genres fluctuated over the period. While comedy made more earnings than other genres, animation made the least profits across the three years.
Looking at the chart more closely, one can see that in 1995, drama surpassed other genres to produce more profits, whereas animation earned the smallest returns. In 2000, comedy was followed by drama, which generated 25 percent of the industry's profits, while thriller, musicals, and animations produced only less than 10 percent of the film industry's total earnings. In 2005, the percentage of adventure's profits grew becoming more than double from 2000, whereas the proportion of musicals' profits fell in a half of the percentage of its profits from 2000. |
