In your post, you said 100% profit. Gross is not profit. Remember that.

Regardless, Batman V. Superman is a bit of a failure and a HUGE disappointment for WB.

I dunno. Warners Unconcerned By "Dawn" Box-Office Drop | News | Dark Horizons

It depends. If the right suits are behind this, they will spin the story and doctor the books to make this a huge success. If the suits decide to move on to something else, things don't look good. If Suicide Squad disappoints and Wonder Woman isn't huge, I suspect Zack Snyder will no longer be on WB's Christmas Card list and the studio will hand the baton to the new golden boy. If those movies are big hits, I suspect there will be a lot of "Let's learn from our mistakes" meetings during the making of Justice League.

The issue is regardless of Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman potentially having an issue with their box office linked to Batman V. Siperman getting panned by critics and the audience, Justice League Part 1 is locked in Snyder on board. It would need some huge cataclysmic event to get him off the project and not further delay production scheduled and its release date. The Flash however is supposed to be lighter like the series which is a gift and a curse send as I already compare it to the series based on Barry Allen being The Flash in both and the backstory of the tv show minus Wells.

I still think WB has made a huge error in judgment in keeping their movie and TV universes separate.

Yet another example of Marvel having a plan and thinking long term and WB making it up as they go along.

I think what happened was WB didn't have a firm plan by the time Arrow was conceptualized due to the failure of Green Lantern and the fact Nolan had a distinct look and feel to them to not work in a shared universe with metahumans.

An ounce of planning is worth a hundred pounds of production.
