F4 and an awful green monster were in a pizza commercial. Well, that’s a stupid commercial. There was no product in the SM25 TV spot. Ppl expect it to look good.

JG is being awfully careless. There is a worse shot of SM than that one. It’s the still he used for his June 11 IG post. Like Ann wrote, SM turns into plastic man.

The CGI in SM25 looks really bad. Geeks say it looks like graphics(?) from a computer game. TBH, I wouldn’t be shocked if they used AI.

JG probably saw the geeks saying he received $38M tax cut from Georgia, so he posted a pic to show how many ppl they hired in Georgia. lol That’s supposed to show the received more than $125M tax cut in Georgia. Yeah, right.

A head of studio that won’t stop talking. He keeps lying and throwing shades. Remember how he congrat Deadpool and call the Marvel peeps his friends? Then he turned around and threw shade at them by explaining how well he prepares to avoid reshoots. Men, he had to eat those words.

The man-child thinks he’s a genius screenplay writer. Yeah, that’s why he kept getting negative reactions from screenings. Copy others and copy GOTG seem to be all he can do. So far nothing in the SM25 teasers and trailers looks fresh and new. Even the last pose on the poster is copied from Superman Returns. The rainbow poster is copied from WW84 and Thor4.

He threw shade at Marvel again. Something about releasing too many films and shows. IMO, the quality and connecting TV and films killed the MCU. Many don’t want to watch whole shows to stay up-to-date about how everything is connected. But JG wants to make it worse by connecting games, comics, TV and films. Or did he change his mind?

He will have to eat many of his own words.

• Greenlight when script is ready
  
• No cameos
  
• No reshoots
  
• Only post-credit scenes that are comedic or emotional additions to the film itself

DCU is a chaotic cesspool. They don’t have a plan anymore. Right now, they want geeks to know that they will get certain films if SM25 is a success.

So JG only prepares well. After that, he doesn’t check what’s in the teasers, trailers and TV spots. What an f*cking idiot. The audiences don’t care if you were well prepared or if you had to reshoot the whole thing, as long as what they see looks good.

I think JG wants everybody to believe that WBD or David Zaslav (DS) can’t tell him anything. Apparently, DS is the one who told him to cut like 25 min of BS out of SM25 to change the goofy tone.

I think that even geeks are telling JG what to do. That’s how much confidence he has in his own creation. We know of two scenes that he changed bc of geeks whining.

He hired so many ppl in Georgia. Can’t believe I’m gonna do this. Lol

In Georgia you can receive a 30% (20%+10%) tax cut of what you spend in Georgia. So only what you spend in Georgia. For tax cuts, you can’t include marketing cost in the Production Budget (PB).

So let’s do a little math. Let’s assume SM25 received the whole 30% tax cut in Georgia.

$363,845,386.00 PB before all tax cut
$011,091,686.70 Ohio tax cut, according to the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Application form
...................................
$352,753,699.30
$225,000,000.00 Reported PB after all tax cuts
...................................
$127,753,699,30 Supposedly Georgia tax cut

If the PB after all tax cuts is $225,000,000, that means SM25 received $127,753,699 tax cut in Georgia.

$127,753,699 is 30% of $425,845,663

So they had to spend $425,845,663 in Georgia to get a 127,753,699 (30%) tax cut in Georgia. But the whole PB before all tax cuts is $363,845,386.

Of course, it’s not that simple. Tax stuff is never simple. But you do get an idea of how much money you have to spend in Georgia to get a 127,753,699 (30%) tax cut.

The man-child wouldn't be in this PB mess if he had kept his mouth shut. He keeps talking, lying and throw shades. He creates drama so he can keep being the center of attention.

All that money and the end product looks like a Nickelodeon film. So not even a streaming film. BTW, some say that $127,753,699 is what SM25 spent in Georgia. 30% of that is $38,326,110.
