They decided to go with MN instead of SC because SC sells the least amount of books, and book sales are linked to the box office. Since MN is the second-highest selling book in the series, they figured it would do well in the box office. So yes, this is about making money. But if they make enough, it might encourage them to make the other three into movies as well. If SC were made, and failed in the box office like they're worried it might, they might not make the rest. So, this is the better option if you want all the movies made.
