A Star Is Born and its soundtrack were actually really succesful, you just wouldn't know because you're not in the target audience. She also still has a mediocre sized but extremely dedicated fanbase almost entirely comprised of homosexual men. That being said, I have no idea why she's in the fricking Joker movie (apparently it might be a musical? idk)
>Leo has a revelation—a producer can make a lot more money with a flop than a hit by overselling shares in the production, because no one will audit the books of a play presumed to have lost money. For this same reason, no duped investor will be aware of the many others, thus protecting the pair from charges of fraud. Max instantly puts this scheme into action. They will oversell shares on a massive scale and produce a play that will close on opening night, thus avoiding payouts and leaving the duo free to flee to Rio de Janeiro with the profits.
This is a gross over-simplification, but the point still stands
You think that these major productions are an investor scam? Who is investing money into a DC production neighbor?
Oddly enough there is more value/ opportunity in the DC name than you could make off a flop. Marvel has made many billions of dollars. Your explanation just doesn't fit reality.
All these projects are funded by numerous investors, some bigger and more involved than others. One of rhe jobs of the producer is to pool money from investors. The bigger more involved investors are generally in on the scam and dont get bit in the end. Also there's ussually insurance to cover losses to other investors so its the average person (uninvolved in even investing)whose premium goes up that gets screwed in the aggreagte.
There's also that victorian one, the meat pies one where all the songs sound the same and that Repo Man one that was, iunno, okay.
The worst case is that it takes itself seriously and ends up being mediocre. If they embrace the camp it could be novel, or bad enough to watch anyway.

if the bible has taught us nothing else, and it hasn't, its that girls should stick to girl sports.

The patriarchy made up the science behind what healthy looks like in order to control the matriarchy's weight for their own sexual greed. There is no difference between a 150 pound woman and a 500 pound one and anybody who says the 500 pound woman is less healthy is only brainwashed by patriarch propaganda or is knowingly distributing said propaganda in an effort to steal our power. Being fat should be celebrated because it's a symbol of taking back the power and sticking it to the man. The fatter you are the more men hate you and the more men hate you the more power you have.
It's pretty impressive how quickly the cultural imperialism crowd moves to snuff out cultures that they don't like. Hopefully we get some good slapfighting when the joker is a non-binary who is driven to evil by alt-right incels who block xem from drag story time

That's about then losing money on paper. Not about them making movies that actually flop.

Hollywood accounting is part of the methodology used to make money off a flop, this theme is so endemic to Hollyeood that a movie was made about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Producers_(1967_film)

But those are the producers? How are the producers scanning investors if they are paying for it themselves.

There's nowhere else for the franchise to go except back to campy. They cranked the "dark and gritty" knob so far it broke off.
Birds of Prey was surprisingly OK tbh, prefer it to most batmen
