I get that there are additional marketing distribution costs, but I’m just going in the budget/gross info available

Worldwide promotional costs for a film like this are as much as the budget. It's been estimated that Doctor Sleep will lose the studio 20 million. Any movie which loses money is a bomb, any movie which breaks even is considered a disappointment.
