Listener email: Jason from Virginia wrote us an email at [email protected] and said:
“I heard the conversation between yourself and Ryan discussing the new version of Lilo & Stitch potentially making more money than people think, and I just wanted to contribute my two cents. My wife and I went to Europe for a week and a half at the beginning of December (Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands). In almost every store that we went in, there was something with Stitch on it. Clothing, glasses, stuffed animals, little action figures. It got to a point where my wife and I were making a game of it and were actively looking for Stitch. I had no idea that Stitch was this popular in Western Europe. I don't know if that will impact the box office, but I can't help but agree with Ryan that this movie will make a lot more than I originally anticipated. I have been listening since the very beginning, and I appreciate all that you do.”
