Where movies that gross 4x their budget, somehow took a loss.
Fun fact, each movie is backed not by the studio or production company. Each movie is backed by it’s own corporation.
For example: Supergirl is produced by a company called Supergirl Corporation. However Supergirl Corporation doesn’t have any money. However, the Studio and Producers have money. The Studio and Producers loan Supergirl Corporation the money to create the movie.
Factor the high concentration of corporations owning everything and charging Supergirl Corporation a ton of fees. Supergirl Corporation has gone bankrupt.
Another disturbingly fun fact. The concept of each movie being a corporation is the same concept you can find other industries. For example; Blackstone doesn’t own all those rental properties. Blackstone owns corporations that own those rental properties.
