Presumably streamed movies' effective revenue are a function of views and the streaming service price. It seems pretty likely that this movie (and especially some of the other canned movies, like Batgirl) would get enough views for the revenue to be higher than whatever they get from the tax write off, even without marketing. And I would think if they still make a loss on it, they can still write off however much the net loss was.
It must make sense to the bag men doing it, right? I figure there's some voodoo magic the money men are doing to inflate the value of the loss they write off. If they sold it they wouldn't be able to use their imaginations on say...(guessing here) lost potential international ticket revenue? Syndication revenue? Related toy sales?
