That's not really fair. Lower prices helps with sales. It's the basic principle behind supply and demand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 2004 was a great time to sales tickets.... Shrek 2 did a massive 581.6m in 2018 dollars, it would have probably did more with higher ticket price (and would have probably been in 3D), but would have not necessarily sold as much ticket under those conditions.

Also there was no Vudu, Hulu, Netflix streaming, Amazon streaming, golden age of tv, Redbox, omnipresent facebook, omnipresent smartphones, etc. The market is much more competitive now.

KJsooner Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 lol the people trying to defend Shrek 2, TDK, and even JW. BP is going to top them all in ticket sales very shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And considering the increasingly fractured entertainment marketplace it only makes Panther look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lehnsherr Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) I still think Shrek 2 is one of the best Animated Movie Sequels and is Top 3 of Dreamworks' Best Films. A little bit sad that all these years later Dreamworks has yet to make a film that made more money than any of the Shrek films unadjusted in North America. EDIT: Though I guess maybe Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda had more admissions than Shrek Forever After Edited April 4, 2018 by Darth Lehnsherr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
