Those aren’t the ones I’m talking about. Flocks, herds, and schools apply to many different kinds of birds, land animals, and fish, respectively. Why would anyone need to use the word “murder” instead of “flock” for crows? A cackle of hyenas? A conspiracy of lemurs? Let’s be serious here. What’s wrong with saying a group of lemurs?
Does anybody actually use these goofy terms for groups of animals? Seems like they mostly exist as a novelty.
Not in this case. Lilo and Stitch is only 23 years old, the copyright isn’t close to expiring.
The goal is to make a lot of money, because people will go see these movies. All these Disney live action remakes have made a ton of money.
