[ELI5] How do film studios stay in business with so many bombs?

1.17K viewsOther

I saw an article that the movie “I.S.S.” made 1.2 million this opening weekend. I’m no movie expert but I’m guessing it cost a lot more than that to make.

Not trying to make an argument about whether they’re good or not, but it seems that the last 4 or 5 WB/DC Super Hero movies bombed hard, too. How does WB continue to make movies if each one makes less than it cost??

Like Mattress Factory, you only need one sale to cover the lack of sales. It still may or may not be a money laundering front.
