Why Would You Expect People To Show Up For Flashpoint?

I know there's this whole, "use flashpoint to fix/reset/etc everything" but what does that really accomplish if the audience still doesn't show up.  And why would you expect them to?  They obviously left after BVS, and JL hasn't won over me.  So why would they show up?

Not reading this thread to see if anyones already said this because it means reading your 1 note annoying DC hate posts, but a simple reason is marketing it right, the Flashpoint cartoon *I haven't read the comic* had a major point being the war between Atlantis and the Amazons, Wonder Woman is a hit so if Aquaman is even a modest hit that's the selling point there, Aquaman Vs. Wonder Woman with Flash being the only one able to stop it with Batman, Cyborg & Superman involved as supporting roles.

Also are you mathematically challenged? BVS did $850m or so, JL looks to do $650-700m that means at worst less than 25% of the BVS audience left, they still have a HUGE fanbase who turn out for the films, and given JL did appeal to most fans it's unlikely they'll boycott Flashpoint, then as I said you set up a war beteen Aquamans people & Wonder Woman's people and it's an easy sell.
