Half of that goes to theaters though, doesn't it?

It's closer to 35% actually. Theaters make their money from popcorn and soda. 

Still that figure doesn't count toys, t-shirts, home video, etc. sales. Obviously they make several times more there. 

Of course Disney is able to twist the wrists of struggling theaters.

Disney is becoming the empire.

They'll make back the investment just in time for franchise fatigue to set in.

I've felt it setting in with TFA.

And taxes, and budget for marketing and distribution... OP does not know business.

Disney's free to make as much money as they please but if they want my money, they gotta make a quality product. TFA sucked.
