Jason,
I think you and I agree that the studios wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot by trying to hurt their 3D sales.
I have a different take on THE LITTLE MERMAID 3D getting pulled theatrically...
First, it is my understanding that theatrical sales declined with each Disney 3D converted classic theatrical release.
Second, I don't think MERMAID was a good candidate for 3D conversion. I believe it was the last of the hand-drawn animated titles and it just didn't look that great in 3D. That's my opinion. Perhaps the studio felt this way as well and decided not to push it theatrically.
