Interesting take on the value of a movie over its lifespan

From Sean Fennessey on The Big Picture podcast:

"Box office is a short-term analysis game. It's not a long-term analysis game because the information around how much more money a movie generates over one year 5 years 25 years is very opaque. The studios are not incentivized to release how much money they garner from licensing a film to a streaming service, what their VOD numbers are going to be, what it means when a movie wins awards and comes back into the conversation. Movies can be valuable over they're like an annuity. They they can generate revenue over long periods of time, right? And a movie like One Battle After Another is an interesting contrast to to something like like a dead stock movie."
