The Angry Birds movie made what, like $350 million? It's a phenomenal franchise.

Making money off the stock isn't like, the only way to make money. HQ would kill to be anything close to as significant as Rovio.

I think I get what you're saying, but that was released five years post-VC. So I don't fully understand how VC could be considered to have ruined Rovio if, five years after accepting it, they're dropping movies that return 3x their cost to produce.
