The saddest part is since it didn't do spectacular nor did it blow away sales like Stranger Things or Critical Role did I imagine some scumbag executive will say movies like this aren't profitable and resort to some cookie cutter structure if there ever is a future reboot.
Best case scenario is it becomes cult status like Scott Pilgrim or something and becomes a long term return to prove it's worth.
I used to have Chris Cox's business card I wish I still had it to call and ask to keep Studio One (he is the new CEO)
That reminds me. I need to buy the movie. Everyone in my house has already seen it but I'm hoping DVD sales improve the margins a bit
From what I understand franchise movies are not so much about doing and selling well but their merchandise selling well.
To quote Spaceballs "merchandising where the real money from da movie is made"
Or to quote Krusty after losing t-shirt sales "that's the sweetest plum!"
Alex Hirsch tweeted to fans if they want more of his work to ask the Disney Store for his merch, saying Disney tracks demand.
Hell we even got another Suicide Squad, where any reasonable movie studio wouldnt have risked it if it weren't for how much freaking money a certain Halloween costume made.
If D&D Handbooks increased by say Stranger Things levels I would guarantee Hasbro would have stopped looking to sell Studio One and green lot another D&D movie 😭
