I went to the Stranger Things popup in Vegas. Not gonna lie, I had a good time. It was like an amusement park exhibit with the classic gift shop at the end, but the prices didn't seem inflated. If I was interested in buying merch, I'd rather go to to one of these than just order it online. I'm not saying it will be successful, but I don't hate them for trying it.
And, yes, they did sell DVD boxed sets.
What's next, Netflix announces new "Netflix Direct" service where for a monthly fee they run a physical wire to your house that plugs right into your TV to deliver streaming content? 🙄
Wouldn't be too far off from what they currently do. They work with ISPs and provide cache servers to decrease load on primary network infrastructure.
Those Stranger Things bath mats won't sell themselves!
This is why my subscription went up? Time to cancel.
This would have made sense back in the early 2000's when malls were still a relatively big thing.
Amazon tried this, they're specifically a shop, and they couldn't make it work.
