What Happened To The Batgirl Movie?

 The studio says.....can it.  It will never be shown in theaters, or via DVDs, or via cable TV.  What's said now....around $70-million was spent, and will be considered just a tax-write-off.

What I suspect?  Three things:

1.  I think they went with a two-star concept, and just thinking anything DC....would sell.  Somewhere near the end of production, the big-boys of the studio then realized there was no real focus.....no hero status....nothing to get people into the theater.

2.  The script?  Maybe it was a marginal script.  No one talks much about it.

3.  It was a no-name actress (Leslie Grace) who got the nod to play the part.  There's always a risk when you do this....people thinking it'll pan out, and sometimes....it does work.  

If they take the tax loss?  Then the whole thing will be shredded and never viewed.  Hard to believe they'd go to the length.
