You might even have ordered food online so it would be ready when you arrived. Even going to the movies has changed from checking out showtimes in your newspaper to grabbing your phone and heading over to the local theater listings. These ‘micro-moments’ happen constantly throughout the day. It has changed the movie industry and how consumers decide when, how, and where to watch the next great movie. In 2015 alone, more than 35 million hours of movie trailers were viewed on YouTube alone. Additionally 69% of those surveyed were more likely to look at a movie trailer on YouTube to decide which movie they wanted to see in theaters.
