Top Ten Actions Warner Bros. took when they realized that they’re never going to get back their $75 million (!) investment in “Lady in the Water

-Immediately stopped development of the sequel.

-Immediately stopped production on the extras for the DVD. Mr. Shyamalan overcharged the studio for his acting in the movie; why pay for commentary that no one will listen to?

-Immediately stopped development of the television series for the CW (formerly the WB & UPN).

-Immediately stopped development of the cartoon show for The Cartoon Network.

-Immediately stopped publication of the DC comic book series.

-Immediately stopped pressing Atlantic Records CDs of “Music Inspired by the Lady in the Water” featuring rejected songs from unknown bands who never even heard of the movie.

-Immediately withdrew “LitW” cell phone wallpaper and ring tones from the Warner Bros. web site, despite getting 3 hits in the last 5 weeks.

-Got black-sheep subdivision AOL to sign up more subscribers by promising that AOL will NEVER give “LitW” away as a free download.

-Asked the Walt Disney Co. to use indoor voices when bragging.

-Didn’t care one little bit. The Harry Potter movies cover the next 70 flops!
