Quoted from iceman44:

Yep, they like losing 100 million to deliver a "thinking man's movie" to the elitist cerebral washed masses to prove a point.
Too bad it wasn't Weinstein's money lost.
"More coincidentally, Weinstein’s toppling occurred the same weekend that Hollywood faced one of its biggest recent shocks — the disappointing show of the much-anticipated, well-reviewed Blade Runner 2049. Hollywood insiders were shocked to see the $155-200 million movie perform so badly, bringing in just $31.5 million during its opening weekend, thanks to the fact that women stayed away in droves (71% of ticket buyers were male)."
