Because it was bad.

how do you know?

You can see all the promotional material.

You don't need to eat shit to know it tastes bad.

Because nobody was willing to spend money to try.

If you had a time machine and a few million dollars more than the tax write off and perceived brand damage they might well have done the same before the materials were destroyed.

Although, part of the reason coyote v acme did so well was the outrage over batgirl being cancelled.

Agreed. Had CvA been cancelled first, it's likely we'd all be watching Batgirl now

I just wanted more Brendan Fraser.

So you believe just what people tell you? I got a bridge I want to sell to you. It's great. Just because people say it's bad doesn't make it so. Opinion's are like asshole's everyone has one.

Same

That makes sense. Trailers always give a reliable impression of a movie.

It could be. Start a movement.

I know they were shelved at the same time but I’m not sure where Batgirl was in terms of production. I believe Coyote vs Acme had finished and was in post, hence some of the outrage but I don’t know about Batgirl.

Suicide Squad had a great trailer but was a shit movie. Sometimes you do have to take a nibble to know for sure.

You don't seem well.

I feel like Coyote vs. Acme felt a lot more novel, which got it more attention. There are only a few hybrid real life/animated hybrid movies out there and they are mostly highly regarded. This was a novel premise to that idea, so there was an audience interested in seeing the movie.

In contrast, there wasn't as big a pent up audience for Batgirl. Superhero fatigue is real and having a woman lead has been shown to be underperforming recently.

I have no opinion on whether Batgirl would've been bad. But if that's your argument, you can't pass on any movie ever, you have to watch them all because how else would you know if it's worth your time?
