>the shitty basketball goat movie gets toys before KPOP demon hunters
Is sony fucking retarded or what. Why did they prioritize this ugly shit more then demon hunters?
>>

Slow down, back up. Start from the beginning. What the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>151989647
Demon Hunters is going to get so much merch over the next decade that you're going to feel stupid for caring about this.
>>
Reminder of the rule of executives: they are old, retarded, and do not know what people, especially younger generations, like
To anyone under 30 it was obvious Korean culture is very hot in the west right now and a film would blow up, to them it felt unmarketable since animation is only for toddlers

Right now i dont have a zoey plushie to cuddle with and sexualize while the farting rhino movie gets toys out first. I know the sexy KPOP dolls are coming but ill be damned if im not pissed this slop is getting merch first. Plus it genuinely baffles me how execs could be so retarded to prioritize zootopia designed by hacks over demon hunters

It's easier to convince licensees to support a theatrical film pre-release than a direct-to-streaming movie. The former is guaranteed at least a few weeks in theatres and if it's from a large studio (like Sony): a decent promotional push. On the flip side, 99% of direct-to-streaming stuff gets a comparatively limited promotional push and is forgotten within 2 weeks of launch.

Also, Americans seem to think Steph Curry is as famous as Messi and Ronaldo. They're absolutely wrong and the NBA doesn't seem to be at its peak of popularity anymore (too many successful Slavs, I guess) either.
>>
>>151995322
KPDH was meant for theaters originally but they dumped it on netflix in favor of the goat movie for some strange reason
>>
>>151995339
See:

>Americans seem to think Steph Curry is as famous as Messi and Ronaldo.

You wouldn't want to insult the globally recognized superstar athlete by dumping his movie onto streaming, would you? Besides, I'm sure it'll be a hit. Space Jam 2 changed the paradigm.

It's not hard to understand why GOAT is getting more marketing than KPOP Demon Hunters.
>animal characters are more marketable to general audiences than Korean women
>GOAT is a more masculine concept and boy series and male characters tend to get more toys in the west than girl series and girl characters with it being almost the opposite in the east because of male coomers
>bigger names attached to GOAT
>KPOP is a very divisive genre of music and my generation was mocking it all the time
Neither interest me, but if you asked me without any footage or other opinions what I would rather watch of the two with just simple plot summaries, I would probably say GOAT.

KPDH designs aren't unattractive obese brown dykes blobs with side cuts in non-sexually dimorphic body armor. They're very traditionally feminine doll line bait. There are a horde of women fashion doll autists who would've bought them even if the movie flopped.

If they were both theatrical releases, I'd invest in a KPDH toyline long before Goat. Jada is a relatively small toy company, so it's not like anyone is betting on it being big. KPDH has Hasbro and Mattel backing it. They're just LTTP.

If Sony rejected Kpop Demon Hunters after seeing

>a full draft, a couple of demo songs, a ton of amazing art and a couple of scenes that I had [story]boarded

the Goat movie better be fucking amazing

>“We pitched the movie to Sony,” Kang explained in a recent interview. “And they passed on it. It’s a big risk to do a movie with a full Asian cast on something that’s very culturally Korean, which hasn’t been done before. K-pop was at its peak, but it could have plateaued. There was a lot of uncertainty with that. So we pitched it to Netflix. We had a full draft, a couple of demo songs, a ton of amazing art and a couple of scenes that I had [story]boarded that we cut. And there were three different animatics samples that we shared; and they loved it. And then we were off to the races.”

You know...it would be great if movies started getting decent videogames again. Don't mention Ubisoft's crap Avatar games. I find myself playing genre's I normally wouldn't touch due to the characters being interesting. Like Armello. I don't care for gard-based games, but Armello is GOOD (and since I like it, or COURSE there will never be a sequel or spin-off. Story of my life). If they made an NBS Jam-esque Roarball video game, fleshed out with like 12 playable teams or so, with individual players of varying species, I could get into that. Anthros make things interesting (tm). Should be my catchphrase or something. Just don't half-ass on the visuals, gameplay should be easy enough to not fuck up, keep UBIsoft, Game Mill, and Outright Games away from the license.

Oh shit I get it’s like the shorthand for greatest of all time but instead it’s about an actual goat. Can you imagine that, a goat playing basketball and becoming, date I say it, the GOAT? Oh man this movie is going to be like so funny.

Executives are absolutely convinced that only boys will buy action figures and only of male characters.

That's why you wind up with situations like the Teen Titans toys in the early 2000s being overwhelmingly variants of Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg despite Raven and Starfire being vastly more popular. Even Aqualad got a standalone figure or two while Raven or Starfire were just in multipacks with other characters.

I'm both surprised and unsurprised that most /co/ anons don't know how the cartoon/toy industry works.

Most cartoon companies have limited say over over licenses get made of their movies, the toy companies do. Agents scout toy fairs and highlight upcoming projects to any interested buyers. The studio selects the most advantageous deal... but you can't pick a good deal if nobody's biting. No toy companies wanted KPDH because it was an original, untested, potentially niche IP going straight-to-streaming.

Now (you) know and I know that K-Pop in general is a massive phenomenon, but try telling that to an out-of-touch boomer exec that still thinks kids are still excited for the Smurfs.

With Goat, it's a much safer bet in the eyes of an exec. Sportsball + animals + celebrity backing. The assumption is that Steph Curry's name alone will sell this film and make it Space Jam for a new generation. That's why the toy company in OP pic is specifically sports-oriented, and not a more general company like Mattel (which has KPDH).

As for the theatrical push, SPA's only released one movie theatrically since the pandemic, Spider-Verse 2. The rest of their movies were sold to Netflix (and Prime, in HT4's case) and were likely assumed middling/financial risks (Vivo, Wish Dragon, Mitchells) which is why the studio likely made more money by just selling them outright to a streamer. KPDH is unique because it might potentially have been one of the worst deals Sony has ever made. Goat's heavy theatrical push reads like SPA trying to avoid another massive loss.

(I say "potentially" because I'm not sure if KPDH's popularity would've translated to a successful theatrical release with all the marketing growing pains, or if it stems from being a streaming film where audiences can play, replay, and share specific songs and scenes on repeat.)

I can think of several animated movies released in the last decade that deserved a quality movie tie-in video game.
>Zootopia GTA clone
>Captain Underpants Arkham clone
>Spies in Disguise Hitman clone
And so on. They'd all just be clones of games kids don't usually play.

There's way more gay furries than straight. Artists often times disregard their own tastes for the cash clients and to get their eyes on their gallery for the sake of future sales.

To be fair, she has a REALLY bad design (she looks like a damn CAT instead of an aardwolf. Muzzle and ears are ALL wrong), but furries, being majority gay, think everything without lipstick, hips, and tits is a male due to their wants and orientation. Also because the artists love jumping the gun on art releasing pic with that character with a cock n balls movie comes out. They don't bother to get the facts. It always happens this way, never the other way. Name a masculine female character, and go looking for the oldest art of them. Then look for art of them after the movie dropped.

Jada has historically made car toys. Diecast miniature replicas, RCs, etc. They expanded into figures a while ago. I don't think they ever really did proper sports toys. Most of their licenses are movies, games and anime.
>>
>>152008088
It happens. Companies like Neca, Jada, and a few others still do high quality action figures for movies. No more shitty figures with just 5 points of articulation including the head turning and paint that rubs off. Movie figures are apparently now for enthusiasts and collectors, not 6 year olds.
