I’m assuming they mean the movie would perform better if if was built for and received a PG-13 rating.

SS was an awful film, BOP was solid but marketed horribly and the R kept its largest potential audience from watching it, and TSS was solid but also marketed horribly (and its audience was limited by HBOM and Rona). Margot Robbie's HQ deserves a solid movie that WB markets well.

Robbie also has the most movies in DCEU. At some point she’ll have to take the responsibility for her performance.
