Current supply vs historical pace
The current 180-day slate against the most recent completed year's release pace.

Next 180 days: 405

Historical half-year pace: 339

Released titles

Methodology: historical volume sums domestic distributor title counts from The Numbers per calendar year. The half-year pace is the most recent completed (non-partial) year divided by two, compared against the current 180-day forward count. Box-office daily rows carry grosses, not release slates, so they are never used for this comparison. When history is absent the pace is null rather than zero.
