I’m leaning towards A, but I’m not confident. It’s tricky because the best outcome doesn’t always mean it’s the most profitable overall.

I think LGF would go for the highest expected value since they want to maximize profits, but I'm not entirely sure how the risk-seeking attitude plays into that.
