Either people are getting paid for the work theyve already done or warner bros is going to have a very large lawsuit on their hands and maybe a strike to top it off.

Lotta people not getting paid. Mostly behind the scenes.

Isn’t the point of the tax write off is because they paid them and it’s a loss?
Skullgrid@lemmy.world 10 months ago
If they get a % based on income/profit/whatever they get a % of 0, which is 0.

You get a write off… if you spend $200 million and wrote it off, now you have $200 million that you don’t need to pay taxes on next time.
Your answer shows you have zero understanding of how taxes work.

You’re saying the same thing. But it’s stupid to think like this either way.
Everyone pretends that write offs/loss carry-forwards are some dark magical thing that’s good for business.
It’s not, they’re terrible, it’s just less terrible than not being able to do it.
No one wants to write things down or take losses when they don’t have to.
