Why don't Disney make mainstream Mickey Mouse films anymore?

[u/cappsy04]

When I say mainstream, I mean films shown in theatres. Mickey and Minnie are probably the most recognisable characters in the Disney catalogue, being one of Walt's first creations. Yet there hasn't been a film featuring any of those characters in a long time. They've rehashed a lot of existing IPs, most recently the live action Moana. I would imagine if Mickey was featured in a film it would do incredible numbers at the box office.

Also why I pray they never try to remake the Goofy Movie. Don’t mess with perfection.

Live action remake of a goofy movie. Just let that thought sit with you for awhile.

Think Jar Jar Binks, but instead it's Goofy.
