Connected to

Long Shot: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (market comparison): Long Shot → The King of Staten Island. Long Shot, an adult non-franchise comedy, made little in theaters because people wanted it on demand, suggesting Staten Island may suit VOD.
    “I was thinking about long shot, which is not a Judd Apatau movie, but is in a similar vein, similar, like a comedy for adults, that it's not a franchise.”

Scoob!: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (preference): The King of Staten Island → Scoob!. A speaker would rather discuss Apatow's film than Scoob.
    “I'd much rather talk about Apatau and that movie than Scoob.”
    The Big Picture · Emergency Mailbag: The Oscars Are Streaming and Hollywood Is Fighting Over Trolls | The Big Picture · 0:12:13 · Sean Fennessey (0.45 sure it was them)

Trolls World Tour: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (release-strategy contrast): Trolls World Tour → The King of Staten Island. Trolls World Tour had baked-in IP and marketing; Staten Island is a standalone comedy going to VOD with little awareness.
    “This is a significantly different choice than something like Trolls World Tour, where there's a lot of baked in understanding of the IP.”
