There is some value in not having a "Coyote vs. Acme" film released this year (either by Netflix or the Library of Congress) because they could try to make a profitable version soon but people may not give a new version a fair chance if a really bad version was released recently.

They presumably value that option more than whatever Netflix et al. offered.https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/9/24067496/coyote-vs-acme-am...

If they want to delay release to wait for better market conditions, absolutely understandable. But if they’re just going to destroy culture out of tax code mechanics, doesn’t hurt to be noisy. At least give it a chance to be preserved with some sort of arrangement.

What I mean is this movie is so bad it will ruin it for the next "Coyote" movie, so they don't want anyone to see this movie. Maybe the only compromise that works is to put it in a time capsule and not open it for 100 years.

That sort of long duration embargo seems reasonable vs destruction.

Except the movie tested well with audiences
