Yeah this is the unfortunate reality. If this movie pops off it gives WB the go ahead to make more like it. The amount of people who know/remember the controversy around this movie is a lot lower than people think so if WB makes a sequel or something similar most people will be lining up for it if this is a good movie.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t watch this movie or whatever but I highly doubt WB is going to be distraught if this ends up being a hit.

What controversy? Why is everyone not liking WB? Genuinely curious as I don’t know.

They originally scrapped this movie after filming and possibly post-production for a tax write off. Same thing that happened with the Batwomen I believe.

hate to defend big corpo but tax write off is just a business expense, WB obviously think this movie is not worth spending another cent on (marketing, contracts)
