We want to continue, for example, with our X-MEN movies and our DEADPOOL movies, but at the same time we have great success with a movie like MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS or THE GREATEST SHOWMAN, where we are very mindful of speaking to this global audience, but not doing it in a way that in the past has homogenized all of the product. Where things fall off the cliff is when that bright consumer says, ‘I have seen this movie.’”
