Remember when we did this s*** for The Interview

What a great movie

So the alternative is take the tax write off instead of allowing offers from other studios or negotiating with them for more than what they would get from a write off? Maybe I'm misunderstanding but tf going on at WB?

Deleting a movie you've never even watched is crazy

Yeah, I’d assume the tax write off would only cover cost of what it was made for. With negotiations they could’ve at least made some profit not double the cost but some.

Honestly think they decided they rather shelf it than risk it becoming a hit for another studio lol

People online who always have to go against the grain are now defending the move saying it’s the right business decision

So what if the movie flopped? It was already completed. Either put it on streaming or sell it. They got offers and Paramount even planned a theater release for it

They apparently only get about $30M from the tax write off yet wouldn’t negotiate for anything less than $75M. It’s clear they were never planning to sell it and only said they’d try after being afraid of the backlash last year when they originally announced they’d dump it

yo thats wild wb makes james gunn head of dc studios then they erase a movie he wrote out of existence

Someone is gonna shoot that man if he keeps doing this

Dude is a f***in idiot

Swear to god if any of these studios try shelving my movie, I’m going to the office with a bat like Cube in straight outta Compton

if he was real, Gunn would drop out of the DCEU. im sure DZ would enjoy shelving all of those capeshit projects on the horizon

You’ll pay for this, Zaslav

real one
he truly deserve to voice the looney tunes

So what us this, just foolish pride/not wanting to look stupid if the movie ends up being beloved? Cuz shelving the movie instead of selling it for additional profit makes zero fiscal sense. At least with Batgirl they had the "tax write off" excuse

We live in a world where Madame Web was released and Coyote vs Acme will probably sit in a digital vault somewhere forever smh

We really lost

Let’s break in the vault bro

The same words I told my ex…

True cinema is dead

this is such a gross manipulation of the system it makes me sick
