    Going to say it’s more that the film is probably not making the money they hoped for in theaters. It seems lately when movies don’t do well in theaters it’s quickly released to home streaming. Borderland/the crow were on prime within a few weeks. Beetlejuice 2 did better in theaters and took a couple months.

    Children movies I would assume are quick to release because parents are more inclined to watch it at home than take their kids to the theater. A family with a couple kids a theater trip can blow over $100 easy.

      Yeah it didn’t do particularly great but it wasn’t a bomb either. I think 19 days is just a crazy turnaround though
