There's zero reason why they would stop doing day and date theater and Disney Premiere. It's bonus bucks with no consequences. They are untouchable. -- nm - IAmQale May 13, 10:59
Raya and the Last Dragon has been dominant on Disney Premier. -- nm - David May 13, 09:30 21
- There's not enough data to say that. -- (edited) - Inigo May 13, 09:42 4
  - At this point, I'd be surprised if Disney's net profit on Raya and the Last Dragon is under $100 million. - David May 13, 09:58 3
    - I remember that math. There were so many assumptions there. -- (edited) - Inigo May 13, 10:10 2
      - But that's the difference between the archaic system that has middlemen vs. the vertical integration of Disney+. - David May 13, 10:21 1
        
        Sure, that is the future. That's why they're doing this. -- (edited) - Inigo May 13, 10:34
- A is excited to see it next month for free. -- nm - znufrii May 13, 09:32
- If they ain’t released purchase numbers, it’s meaningless. - Will Hunting May 13, 09:32 14
  - Not to the people who get the $30, the ones who just made a mint. -- nm - David May 13, 09:34 11
    - Where’s the #’s? - Will Hunting May 13, 09:36 10
      - We went through this once before, and it finished in the top ten on the streaming charts three more weeks after that. - David May 13, 09:39 9
        
        That means nothing. Nathan watched Frozen 7 times in a day. He would have paid for 1. - Will Hunting May 13, 09:49 4
        
        Even if you cut 1.5 billion viewing minutes by seven, that's still a massively profitable movie. - David May 13, 09:57 3
        
        Is it 1.5billion viewing minutes? That’s the number? - Will Hunting May 13, 10:06 2
        
        I think you're not wrong, except for one point. - Beryllium May 13, 10:21 1
        
        Yes, it's why Variety posted two versions of the same article yesterday. Disney's protecting its numbers, even from its own people. - David May 13, 10:27
        
        The sequel is the big tell. -- nm - Dark Callisto May 13, 09:46 2
        
        Has there been an announcement by Disney? Google search says the sequel is rumored not confirmed. -- nm - Inigo May 13, 09:49 1
        
        No official announcement, but development is underway. -- nm - David May 13, 09:54
        
        Random kid at the playground last weekend had the stuffed dragon toy. That’s enough for me to consider it a success. - znufrii May 13, 09:43
  - Yup. Everything floating around the industry is that Mulan and Ray’s were complete flops. -- nm - MDH May 13, 09:34 1
    - I'm in the industry. And I'm stating unequivocally that Raya and the Last Dragon was a solid success. Spiteful movie theaters spit the bit there. -- nm - David May 13, 09:35
