A new report claims the studio’s asking price for the shelved film is very high.

it seemed like another example of the company’s recent policy of taking tax write-downs on films they believed would be losers at the box office. In 2022, they performed a similar accounting trick with a live-action , at least by some public accounts, was not.)

Coyote as he decides to sue the Acme Corporation because all of its products fail to perform their required service — a very funny idea, in fact.
