[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 9063893, member: 6716779"] You're extrapolating if limited Dara though and incomplete information. Steaming generates very little income directly. VoD is easier. Movies also have legs. Basically the longer it screens for the more money. D&D has already fallen off the bandwagon so to speak. . One debate going around atm isn't if VoD is good but is it undermining theatrical release which is worth more money still. By that they mean if a movie is being released within a month or two of theatrical release is that a good thing? Mario and John Wick were noth released around the same time as HAT but essentially made their production budget week 1. This also compounds the earlier the movie makes its money the more money they get. Generally a movie makes around a third of its money opening weekend, another third Week 2 &3 then tails off from there. D&DHAT followed that pattern. The writing was also on the wall week 1 it needed around double what it got. If it did do double on its box office run it would be similar to John Wick (which cost less to make) [/QUOTE]
