Bzzzt! Wrong-o back atcha. Your understanding of the industry is tenuous as best. I could go into the genesis of this project, but that's all a distraction from my point, which is that the "controversy" of people "protesting" it (and I don't see why anyone should even care--the moviemakers have every right to make it) is something the studio expected.

According to the accounting, which I know something about, this is looking to do just fine money-wise. No one can predict for sure, but this is being marketed craftily, conservative outrage included in the mix.

Absolutely spot on. The irony is that the publicists of this movie are begging for a controversy - you can't buy that kind of publicity. Wanna help this movie tank? Then ignore it, don't shout about it.
