make money. heh. tell that to the disney execs after TREASURE PLANET opened. |
Childrens ignorence is only surpassed by their parents.
Let me stick to the movie "Treasure Planet" for a few moments...
The fact that Treasure Planet wasn't a success, was not due to the kids. It was due to the fact that their parents were uninterested. Disney did a bad job of marketing.
I work in a video store, and let me tell you
KIDS WILL WATCH ANYTHING!
It was insane the day Treasure Planet came out.
We couldn't keep it on the shelves for weeks.
I'm not saying that they are stupid for not going to Treasure Planet, they just buy into everything.
IE-Pokemon, Telletubies, and the worst abomination of all VEGETALES!
Kids today are selling out at an extraordinary rate.
Any kid who enjoys learning their morals from a talking Pickel can kiss my ass.
I'm not saying its the kids' fault, it's just they don't seem to put up much of a fight against this shit.
99% of all kids movies make at least double the price spent to make it.
Robert knew what he was doing.
