This is a link post The new Batgirl movie is so bad that it will never be released.
Was it a licensing scam like with the 1994 unreleased Fantastic Four?

Seems doubtful as it had Michael Keaton reprising his role of Batman, and some other fairly high profile people involved.

If the decision was based on quality, how come the 2004 Catwoman was released in actual cinemas?

::EDIT::
Some more details about various continuity issues and the change of direction from streaming to cinema here:

This is a normal post From what I read if they don't release it
they can write the whole project off as a tax-loss, which would make more financial sense than releasing it. Must be absofuckinglutely dire.

I mean that's all right there in the article, so I'm assuming brb just hasn't read it.

I can think of a few other recent films that I'd rather have been written off as a tax loss as well. Thor 4 springs immediately to mind.

This is a normal post Not sure which is the better news:
"Warner Bros also confirmed that Scoob! Holiday Haunt would be scrapped."

This is a normal post I am glad that someone in authority up there sees diminishing value in more streaming content,
even if it's for financial reasons rather than the environmentally destructive and socially divisive reasons that I hate them for.

This is a normal post "it did not have the “spectacle that audiences have come to expect from DC fare”"
What? A big grey CGI monster surrounded by smoke?

This is a normal post Yes I've heard that
That doesn't explain why grown men agonise over them though

This is a normal post I have a theory that killjoys like you
have had a really rough transition from childhood to adolescent to adult, and you feel some kind of stunted emotional need to sneer at people who can still enjoy childish things.

Some people grow out of needing to feel like a proper adult. Their happiness should not have this negative effect on you. I hope you're okay. x

This is a normal post I think you've subconsciously projected Batman's back story onto me there
Which probably undermines your analysis a bit

This is a normal post No, I don't think I did, and I don't think it would even if I had.
I think you were perhaps belittled for holding onto childish things, and you think others should suffer as you did.

Perhaps you thought you could earn kudos by pretending to be mature, but in your immaturity you decided the solution was to belittle others for holding onto childish things. Perhaps that stunted your ability to accept the childish happiness experienced by others. Perhaps you'll never get past this barrier to your emotional development.

Either way, I think asking members of a puerile comedy arts website to grow up is either trolling or betraying a significant lack of self awareness.

And I mean all this is the nicest possible way. x

This is a normal post Think of it like breasts.
Made for kids, and yet most adult men (and some adult women) like them too.

Do you like breasts, or are they something you stopped enjoying because you are now an adult?

This is a normal post Telling other people to grow up does not have the effect of making you seem like a mature or balanced individual.

Is strange because a number of films have bombed in the cinemas and yet ultimately turned a profit from DVD sales.
