Understand that generally every $1 needs to bring in a return of about $3 for a project to be considered successful.
The original $300 million budget brought in ~$700 million, and now they've spent even more on reshoots.
And they're betting on HBO Max to fill the gap.

HBO Max is $15 a month.
So they're going to need about ... 40 million people to sign up for HBO Max for the Snyder Cut to pay off.
Also HBO Max's international distribution is a mess right now, so those 40 million people will all need to be American.

Now, that's not an impossible number. Netflix has something like 200 million subscribers, right?
But you're expecting 40 million people to jump on for a director's cut of Justice League.
"I already saw Justice League."
Most people are not hardcore fans.

There's a lot of "what do you people know we'll show you all" involved, which is going to make this that much more of a mess.
This all starts to make more sense when you realize most of the old guard in charge of HBO left after the merger.
