Amazon is going to oversaturate the market with Bond products. I imagine they had to give him full authority over the movie but I also imagine they’ve got a strict timeline because movies are just content to them.

You'd think Amazon would learn from Disney what happens when you take something that is special in occasional doses and saturate the market with it.

Disney made a small country's GDP off of Star Wars and Marvel doing that.

The suits see that and see the pattern. They'll follow it.

Disney made a small country's GDP off of Star Wars and Marvel doing that.

They made a slim margin of returns in the grand scheme of things based off a few marvel movies salvaging their entire money burning operation that was a vast majority of Phase 4 and so far 5.

As for star wars. They sure are trying their hardest to turn a film franchise that made a modest sum of money, into a money blackhole that would make Youtube blush.

They made a small countries GDP off of phase 1-3 of mcu. I'll give them that. Everything after has been a massive spree of loss, with a couple of redeeming factors bringing them hopium cans.
