Kind of similar to the Ahsoka/Fulcrum entries issue, how are we going to deal with the Kallus/Fulcrum II entries this time? The thing is Kallus doesn't have a lot of things going on with him (like [=Fulcrum!Ahsoka=] has enough things going on with her to warrant her being a separate entry from [=Padawan!Ahsoka=]).

* The Agent Kallus entry is for tropes that apply to Kallus when he's not actively Fulcrum II, and the Fulcrum II page only counts for moments where he's Fulcrum II (ex. his transmissions). The problem is that this can be confusing as to where tropes would be sorted and might get redundant.
* Move the trope list of Fulcrum II to beneath the Agent Kallus entry (like how the Attack On Titan character pages have entries divided for two parts ('Tropes that apply to the second half of the series'), for example, see Characters/AttackOnTitanThe104thTraineeCorps.

1. Did it make a profit or did it not break even? Those are mutually exclusive things. There's also this idea that a movie, ''any'' movie, has to make back 2.5 times its budget to be profitable. I'm skeptical of that, since this 2.5 number is often paired with the claim that theaters take 50% of the gross. In the US at least, that doesn't seem to be the case unless a movie stays in theaters for more than 3 weeks. The number I keep seeing is closer to 20-25% to theaters at first, but it all depends on the contract with the studio; it's definitely not a hard-and-fast rule. I don't know what the actual average percentage theaters made from [=BvS=], but I'd like to see harder numbers before accepting that WB and DC essentially gave away 50% of the gross. Maybe I'm guilty of RealityIsUnrealistic here, but that seems waaaaay to high.

Even if those counterpoints hold true, waiting until it's completely finished its theatrical run seems wise before declaring it a flop or not.

2. WB dialing back its releases could be for a number of reasons. Is there anything to confirm that BvS flopping is the cause?
