There is no way the IP cost more than the hardware.

To add isn’t the rights to the film owned by Warner themselves anyway?

Wouldn’t this be covered in the royalties/licensing deal Village already have with Warner for their brand name plus IP like DC, looney tunes, and scooby-doo or at most renegotiated to include Oz?

Its turner. And village dont have any ties to warner bros anymore, not even as a film distributor, so they pay for everything. You dont get all your characters in a packaged deal. You generally have contracts and agreements for everyone you licence. Usually image rights and the ability to have the characters in your park can be seperate from merchandising rights too. So agreements might end/come up for renewal at different times for different characters (or groups of) vs a blanket agreement to use any of a studios IP.
