Not to condone leakage, but someone should just drop these films out for free. It’s not like WB would then make money on them, so wouldn’t be contravening the tax rules; the filmmakers would get their movies out and seen, and fans get to see them semi-legitimately.

"Zaslav never saw the movie at all."

Not just him all four main heads to voted to cut it never watched it and one is the new head of wb animation. Yikes!

They voted to taxcut a movie they never even saw but got great reactions for $35m on a $80m budget.

To be fair, three of them saw a version of it: "Zaslav never saw the movie at all. De Luca and Abdy saw a 'director’s cut,' and Damaschke saw the first audience preview."

I think there are people who do that, I heard that "a friend of mine" watches these movies whenever he wants and doesn't pay a single penny...

Lucky him :D

No, I’m not advocating piracy, just suggesting a leak drop might be the only way to see the Acme movie, what there is of Batgirl and maybe the Scoob movie. Nothing more.

He also recently shared his gratitude towards fans and new images:
Eric Bauza wrote:Regardless of what happens to this film, on behalf of the cast & crew — I just wanted to express how thankful we are of all the love, support and words of encouragement we’ve recieved behind #ReleaseCoyoteVsACME

The fight to release “Coyote Vs ACME” goes far beyond saving a great movie. We are trying to preserve the integrity & importance of these icon legacy characters, while protecting the creative process of storytelling all together.

#ReleaseScoobHolidayHaunt
