Part 3/11:
Warner Brothers invested heavily in this film, with some estimates suggesting at least $150 million was spent on marketing alone. Combined with the production costs, the studio faces potential losses of $250 million or more. The decline is stark: The Flash opened strong enough but suffered a sharp 72% drop in its second weekend, indicating poor word-of-mouth and audience fatigue. The film's early momentum and initial interest have not translated into sustained theatrical success.
