In theaters, Justice League could lose WB more money than...

Dude, BvS grossed like $870 million worldwide. What do you think Justice League will gross off a $281 million opening weekend?

Exactly! $300 million budget, at least $150 million marketing....add them together and double it gives you $900 million. Those legs are going to have to be a good deal better than "solid."

Dude, WB are keeping the budget a secret, it's going to be at least $300 million. The marketing is thought to be at least $150 million. The rule of thumb is simple math. Add the marketing and production budget then double it to give you the break even point in theaters. Justice League needs to be grossing a lot more than $800 million worldwide. The movie will probably make a profit....eventually. Blu-ray sales and ancillaries will see to that. That is why I prefixed the title, "in theaters." In terms of it's theatrical performance (miracles aside), it is looking to be a complete disaster.

Yeah, that isn't too different to what I was saying. When you start taking ancillaries and Blu-ray sales into account, it will probably eke out a small profit. A movie's success or failure in theaters isn't judged on ancillaries and Blu-ray sales though. It is judged by profit or loss made from butts on seats.
