    do you think Wicked has the longevity of other popular franchises

    Babes, Wicked has been a musical theatre darling since 2003. It already HAS longevity and popularity, just not in your circles. Once again, 2nd biggest Broadway show of all time, (actually of this millennium.) It’s not #1 only because Lion King has been around longer.

    The Broadway Girls™️ and Broadway Gays™️ are coming for that merch, and so are the Ariana Stans. Again, look at the price of that Cat Valentine doll.

    (Also, comparing Harry Potter to Wicked is funny because of how they’re two of the THE 2008-2015 Tumblr fandoms (ignoring Superwholock))

      The difference is Harry Potter was an all ages international phenomenon, not just a Tumblr fandom.

      So few things actually become collectibles, you’d have more luck with a beanie baby than you would this misprint Wicked merch long term.

          Unfortunately it’s not a conversation, they’ve already decided their right and no amount of illumination on their obvious blindspots is gonna change that.

            It’s important to figure out if the other person is really playing the same ballgame as you are. Once you realize that the rule books don’t match, it’s time to cut your losses and move on.

            Took me many years to understand that, but once I did, I’ve saved so much time. For example, you might be talking to a flat-earther thinking that it’s a debate where logic and facts matter. Spoiler: it’s not. The rules aren’t what you initially thought, and there’s no way to win. You winning just isn’t in their rule book at all.
