That wasn't a joke
Over 500 Gigabyte for one movie. The size obviously depends on the length but also on the amount of visual stuff and sound things they might add. Also quality requested. 3D also increases the size heavily.
Right but 517 GB is ~0.05% of a petabyte. Nobody is saying 517 GB is small, but it’s a far cry from petabyte(s) of storage
A Petabyte would be a thousand movies. No cinema has a thousand movies on its program.
Depends strongly on the cinema, many have the movies around for relatively long and as said, the size varies heavily.
