That $50,000,000 loss actually damaged investor-confidence and is the reason they decided not to make any more stand-alone films.
They even canceled a planned Obi-wan Kenobi film.
Also the reason why "The Mandalorian" is a streaming-series and not a movie.
All that revenue matters - and they took a big hit.
Investors want to see $$$-returns on their investments - if large amounts of audiences don't go to see their movies, it hurts the studio's pocketbook and that scares them.
