Economic woes hinder Thai cinema
Bangkok Post
|August 07, 2025
Thailand’s sluggish economy could impact how frequently audiences visit cinemas, according to leading Thai film studio GDH 559 Co Ltd.
Thodsapon Thiptinnakorn, director of content at GDH 559, said the economic slowdown may force film audiences to be more selective, with frequency dropping from several visits a month to possibly just one.
Furthermore, Thai films face stiff competition from a strong lineup of Hollywood blockbusters during the Western summer movie season.
He emphasised the importance of a strong movie concept as essential for attracting audiences during these challenging times, calling it the “big idea”
Mr Thodsapon rejected the stereotype that audiences might stick with a particular genre, as many pundits have noted Thais love comedies. He said many Thai comedies did not earn a profit.
