    I hope the IRS tells WB they can’t take a tax write off for a property that other studios have offered to buy (for more than the write down value).

    I know it’s not the case, but imagine if this was the ultimate viral marketing campaign.

    I mean… Imagine how terrible it’s gotta be for the doofuses at WB to shelf this, considering the utter garbage they’ve been putting out since forever.

      WB doesn’t give two fucks about the quality of their content, they just want to be able to make cheap fucking money. Toys, theaters, or tax write-offs. If it’s not gonna end up making bookoos of cash in theaters or off the toy shelf, they have no problem dumping bathtubs, babies n’ all.

      Discovery-Warner/HBO/wtf-they-are-now will gladly tell artists to get fucked for a tax write-off. Based on how much beloved shit they’ve been using to feed the flames of their eternal dumpster-fire, I’m pretty sure that their C-suite considers shitting on artists a job benefit.

      Unsure if it’s in this one but another interview by someone who worked on it said it was great. And it tested great. It’s probably all armor ROI, if WB doesn’t think it’ll make maximum money they’d rather have tax write off.
