Yo, all right, what can you do with either Sackboy or another one of our family-friendly IPs that maybe we already have? Maybe I'm looking at a third-party studio that we're not thinking of and going, make something new for us.
I'm talking about the GOAT.
I'm talking about the GOAT.
But can you â and this is going to sound very corporate of me. Can you get Astro Bot there as far as â you know, we have obviously the critical success. You have the 1.5 million sales in whatever period of time that was. What more can you extract from it, right? If I'm putting on my CEO cap, like, can I get an Astro Bot cartoon going? Can I get Astro Bot toys in stores?

Can I get, I don't know, like, can I put Astro Bot in theaters and make, like, a fun little, like, Minions-style movie out of it, right? Like, what can I do for Astro Bot to, like, get it to that place of, well, now this IP is making the returns, even if just the game isn't. How do I turn this into Sonic the Hedgehog? Yeah.

No.
No.
Yeah. And I will say the tough thing for me with this analogy with Astro Bot specifically is that I also don't necessarily see Astro Bot as the IP of put this in theaters. Like, unless you do really go all the way and go, hey, we're making a Minions movie, but it's Astro Bot. I think that's really the, The way. Give the people what they want. Nobody wants that, right? I'm going to watch it.

I saw Gran Turismo. You did see Gran Turismo. But I do think you can find other IPs to do that with or create IPs that are based more on like character stuff, right? Like a Crash Bandicoot or a Ratchet and Clank. I guess you literally have Ratchet and Clank that you can do that with. Yeah. And they did. Yeah, they did. Yeah, they did. I think it's worth chasing though.
