# Coyote vs. Acme Team Screens Film at Comic-Con, Says Fight Was Worth It

The film was initially canceled by Warner Bros. for a tax write-off, but after fan outcry, it was allowed a limited theatrical and streaming release. This matters as it highlights the power of audience advocacy in reversing studio decisions on completed films.
