Is it 1.5billion viewing minutes? That’s the number?

If so, that’s 12.82 million viewings. At box office, that’s 128mil bucks. However, 1 and done viewing isn’t likely when you buy for 30 bucks so let’s say each buyer watched it two times. That’s 6 million buys. They’d scream from rooftops on 180mil in sales but didn’t so it’s less. Let’s say 3x viewings...all of a sudden, we are down to 4mil buys.

Take Nathan’s daily viewing as the average total watch...7 times, that’s 1.75m buys for a 45mil sales.

If they had huge success, they’d scream the numbers. These are the same people who invented 15mil to beat Avatar’s global come. No numbers is a sign.

They can green light a sequel based on re-watches knowing the next gross is bigger but it’s not because this was a huge money maker. PR dictates bravado. No bravado = no foundation.

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
