Digital screens and projectors have replaced traditional film reels, allowing for more dynamic and engaging advertisements. This shift towards digital cinema advertising has enabled advertisers to deliver targeted messages and interactive content to moviegoers. Furthermore, the rise of 3D and IMAX screenings has opened up new possibilities for advertisers to create immersive and memorable experiences.
