They didn't expect Sonic to be a hit back then.
And may be it wouldn't be a hit if they still use the ugly Sonic design.
But they listened to the fans, and now it's awesome!
Actually I don't hate that movie.
I can barely remember it.

Then it's not that bad. If it's really bad, you probably still remember how bad it is.

Jack Black Pitches Himself for Live-Action Yakuza Role

In particular, the comedy star wants a role in Sega's long-running Yakuza game franchise. He said, "So I'm going to throw my hat in that ring. I don't know if there [are] any parts for me, like a portly American, but talk to me. Sega, give me a jingle."
When Black and his costar, Donald Glover, were asked about what other universes they would like to explore, the latter gave a ...

That's true. A forgettable movie is less offensive than a bad movie.

Unless if it's in a marketing perspective.
PT Barnum once said, “There's no such thing as bad publicity”.
Better to be known as a bad movie director than to be an unknown movie director at all.

you mean like the Ghostbusters reboot no one wanted? How it tried to use feminism as a leverage point? Despite how bad publicity it got, it still got butts in seats from people who want to see how bad it was.

But, didn't quite work the same way with Snow White's new movie and how there were videos of empty theatres over it.

Yep, for the director. The context is here is for the movie directors' name marketing.
He still got to direct more movies after that, A Simple Favor (2018), Last Christmas (2019), The Housemaid (2025), and Another Simple Favor (2025).

You can't get a job if nobody knows you.

He's still doing okay and even being appointed to direct Day Drinker this year.

Not my kind of movies, but, still known for particular bad movies which is still something over nothing.
