Fairly sure losing millions is considered a bomb. I mean just because it was a conventional bomb vs. a nuclear bomb doesn’t mean it didn’t kill the movie franchise.
I said that 
Though I am sure others did as well.
I’d love to see a Netflix series in the style of their cgi cinematics.
I don’t know why people keep saying it spent $320 million on marketing. That is flat out wrong. It was has been said as a rule of thumb that a movie needs to usually make 3x its production budget (at the box office) to make a profit when you consider its marketing and distribution budgets, but no movie has ever spent that much on marketing. The average marketing budget is about 30% of a movies production budget. For instance in 2018 the average movie budget was $106 million and the average marketing budget was $35 million.
Of course that 3x rule of thunb number doesn’t take into account doing really bad in the US and really good in China.
I don’t pay attention so I don’t know and don’t care to, it doesn’t change the fact that the movie lost money.
They didn’t post a fact at all. They posted quotes from a Hollywood trade.
Source?
You don’t have any facts that state it lost money.
You have assumptions made by a Hollywood trade. They are not facts.
Well like the undead hunter explained I might have been wrong on that.
You clearly don’t want to accept that it lost money. Evidently Forbes thinks The Hollywood Reporter is legit enough to quote

Look at my breakdown above. There is nothing to even closely suggest that it made money and at the very most a few analysis said it “may have” broken even. The big problem is that half of its ticket sales were from China which is the worst market for foreign films because of the government control.
