[QUOTE="M_Natas, post: 8990173, member: 7025918"] At least it would create some buzz. You fail as an artist if you people just don't care about your art. At best they love your art. At second best, they hate it. At worst the don't care and just ignore you. Like ... HaT has 36 000 ratings on IMDB. Freaking cocaine bear has 50 000 and Mario has so far 38 000 (I don't think a lot more Kids have IMDB Accounts). John Wick 4 has 100 000 ratings and even Shazam 2 had 41 000. That just shows, that there is not a lot of interest in the movie itself. Like ... for most people DD:HaT is as interesting as Shazam 2. And that is not a lot. Because even though I know that Shazam 2 exists, I really don't care. If it is streamed on a streaming service I already subscribe too, I may watch it if there is nothing else (like with Shazam 1 - I watched it in an airplane, because it was the most interesting Movie they had that I hadn't seen yet), but that's it. The same seems to be the case with DD:HaT. Casual movie goers without interest in D&D or having a friend who is dragging them to the cinema, they just don't care about it. They may see it if it drops to their streaming service but they will not seeks it out. Like my Sister, who is actually playing D&D - she was just - meh, I see it when it comes to Netflix. Some Movies make you want to go the cinema, like the MCU at the Hight of their game, like, it seems, any James Cameron Movie ... Even my interest wasn't that big to begin with. Only reading the Prequel novels made me really excited to see the movie. Like ... I'm more excited about the Barbie Movie. Those trailers peaked my interest. Like - wtf is going on over their at Mattel? The D&D Marketing didn't do that for me. I needed the prequel novels to get really excited for the Movie. And sadly not a lot of people are reading books anymore. And reading a book to get excited about a movie is not the best marketing strategy :D Paramount and Hasbro need to up their marketing and movie making game. [/QUOTE]
