Haven't there been like 2-3 MLP movies already? I don't know much I just remember seeing ads for one where they are all bizarrely colored Doug humans.

Yeah, but those were direct to TV/video, not theatrical.

A part of me hopped at one time this was because of licensing issues with Del Toro developing it as an HBO series. Which wow, I thought that might actually happen at some point. I managed to catch its one run on Sci-Fi which was nice, because it was extremely my mom's poo poo and she has trouble with the right-to-left manga format.

Nah, this was years before the HBO series was a thing. They released the first DVD set and it sold like garbage, so they didn't release the rest of the series. It used to be on iTunes, but not anymore.

Does anyone know of somewhere to read any kind analysis of Disney's recent merchandizing decisions?

In addition to Zootopia, there was the incredible lack of Rey merchandise. A character who is basically Luke and Han put together, plus being a good role model for girls. I just wonder if it's like one guy dropping the ball or if they've got some kind of metrics telling them this stuff. It's probably all unknowable for outsiders.

From what I heard, Disney marketing legitimately thought that Kylo Ren would be the breakout character like Vader before him.

Remember that some people back in the day got really mad at Walt for attempting to release a full-length animated movie. "How dare this purveyor of one-reel novelties fancy himself a real filmmaker?!" Disney's empire was basically founded on one of the biggest risks in cinema history.

I might get drawn and quartered for saying this, but I'm not really the biggest fan of Don Bluth's stuff. Most of his stuff is.....the best way I can put it is visually off-putting. I can't really articulate why, I just don't like it.

Also he has a bad habit of drawing small girls with bedroom eyes and THAT'S WEIRD.

what's hilarious about Anastasia is that everyone I've ever had a conversation about it with initially thinks it was a Disney movie, and is SHOCKED when I tell them it wasn't.

It's not surprising because almost all the marketing for the movie, even to the recent Blu-Ray, is trying to fool you into thinking it's a Disney Princess movie.

Boss Baby seems like it's a decent concept for a silly short film or TV series, but they had to make a movie about it so they tacked on the whole puppy plot to make it 2 hours.
