The reason why the P&F movie was cancelled was because they couldn't come up with a story for it -- it never got past the writing stage and has been stuck in dev heck for years, and since the show's crew is perfectly fine with just working on the show, Disney decided to cancel the movie. It's not like they were just about to start filming and Disney suddenly cancelled it for no reason.

Disney Infinity, on the other hand, is priced as it is because Disney NEEDS to make money on the game. Disney Interactive Studios is Disney's least profitable division, constantly drawing losses for them (hence why they've closed most of their devs: Junction Point, LucasArts, Propaganda Games, etc.), so it's something of a last resort. If it flunks, then Interactive will be stuck making nothing but iOS/Android games from now on. If it does succeed, then not only will Interactive be makin' profits, but Disney will be able to produce higher-budgeted console games.

Totally different circumstances.
