I wasn’t aware that it flopped, though this seems to have been the press narrative for many outlets from its release.

$53 million global opening weekend sounds like pretty good business to me.

Yeah, I agree - seems a pretty reasonable take for a movie released this time of year. I can't help but wonder if the press covering Hollywood just wants it to fail because of WB's current leadership's unpopularity. I'm no fan either, but something just smells fishy here...
