Maybe speak only for yourself.
That a revenue of 200+ Million compared to a budget of 150 is seen as "box office bomb" speaks volumes about Hollywood's expectations these days. Profit was made, end of story.
The movie was not marketed well, but I found it very well made, and as a D&D player myself, I found it charming in many ways. My only slight displeasure was at a Bard that doesn't cast a single spell, but I understand why they did it.

Anyway: they'll make more, and I'll watch more.
