It's literally just brand identity. The capitalist media encourages a hype cycle completely independent of the actual quality or content of the film/game/show being pushed - in Disney's case it's easy because they also own TV networks, newspapers, internet properties, etc, so they can just carpet-bomb the public with nonstop ads (and pseudo-ads, like actors from Star Wars being on talk shows all week). Porgs are basically a forced meme; at this point the consumers have no real personality or sense of self beyond the consumption of "nerd" themed commodities, so they eat it up. (see also: Ready Player One, those monthly loot boxes).
