Agreed, and I guess Star Trek would be the gold standard here, though many TV series would get a movie that received broad release, even if it wasn't expected to be an absolute blockbuster. It doesn't happen quite so much anymore, so, like, it's an older code, sir, but it checks out.
Star Trek is probably a better comparison, than what i was thinking of. My mind was more on things like El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie that got a very, very limited release and serves as an epilogue. Or maybe the Psych movies that are probably more like an episode in movie form (havent seen them).
Guess we get to see how this format works out nowadays.
