[QUOTE="Hex08, post: 8717288, member: 7029595"] While If the poor reviews are truly part of the reason, and considering the company's silence on this we will never know, test screenings are common to gauge audience reactions and will frequently prompt reshoots/rewrites and further test screenings. This means, for better or for worse, everyone who sees a movie is impacted by those reviews. I think your point about DC properties being mismanaged is spot on. Warner Bros bought DC in 1969 and other than Batman and Superman they never had a successful superhero movie and rarely tried to get other properties to the big screen. Marvel, on the other hand, got the MCU started before it was bought out by Disney. Warner should have started the superhero movie craze and failed miserably, after all DC was owned by a media giant long before Marvel. As Warner has changed hands these past few years; from being bought out by AT&T and then the Discovery merger nothing has improved (although AT&T at least seemed to have a plan). [URL='https://screenrant.com/hbo-max-scripted-shows-development-cancelled/']Now it looks like HBO Max may leave behind scripted TV altogether[/URL]. I would have watched Batgirl because I love superheroes but I wasn't excited about it. Instead, we are getting a Flash movie headlined by the train wreck that is Ezra Miller (I kind of feel bad for this actor, they have serious issues that need worked on) and a Black Adam movie headlined by Dwayne Johnson who thinks bicep size equals acting talent. Considering what's coming down the line I would much rather have watched Batgirl than either Flash or Black Adam. [/QUOTE]
