Does anyone know why the production date of movies at the end is always in Roman Numerals

Not very sexy, I’ll admit, but I can’t figure out why?

All over

To ensure the copyright date was always readable as arabic numerals can be hard to read in fine print apparently

It’s to disguise the date of production. when movies were less widely promoted than they are now, people weren’t as aware of what was a new movie v one made several years prior. It also helps with global distribution in counties which don’t use our numeric system.

Because it's a practice that was started by the Romans when they were making films centuries ago

Yes, I am joking.

As hasbeen already said, it is done to ensure the production date is always readable
