Should they air showings of the original g1 movie before new movie?

Disney has brought back old classics like the Lion King, and I think Beauty and the beast, remastered, back to theatres, on occasion. Should Hasbro do the same, showing runs of the remastered g1 movie in the weeks to come, before g4's movie hits the big screen? (Or before trailers start popping up, so the g1 movie won't Impact g4's?)

I don't think that the first G1 movie is popular enough with to warrant something like this happening.

polls, bby. Let the people decide. They have researchers for a reason.

And if not, then it could only be in select cities

HELL NO. That would only drive down the chance of success.

No. I don't think that the g1 movie is popular enough for Hasbro to do this.

It's kind of faded into obscurity, there isn't much desire to see the original movie. It's not very popular.

 

And honestly the only thing worth remembering is the Smooze, Otherwise, it feels like a glorified episode of a TV show

Agreed, plus that might have a negative impact since there's quite a difference between the two versions.

Hmmm... I wouldn't show the generation one movie in theatres whether it was the remastered version or not. From what I remember, it wasn't very well received when it was initially released, so doing that might detract audiences from wanting to check out the generation four movie. Instead, I would air it on television as a special just to see what would happen.
