That makes sense if they can get a big financial write-off by yanking it.

Hopefully they're allowed to add it back at some point after all the financial monkey business is done.  Willow really isn't all that good, but they should still keep it in the catalog.

From what I understand it is a bit of a slippery slope that are on. On the one hand they are writing off the project as unreleasable to get the write off. On the other they filmed in the UK to take advantage of UK tax credits to reduce the budget...but those tax credits get cancelled if the product is deemed unreleasable, leaving them with a new tax bill to pay. Hope the one covers the other.
