Is it set to actually lose $132M, or just "lose" it in the tradition of Hollywood accounting?

Isn't the rule of thumb for Hollywood that you have to make at least 3x the cost of production in box office sales to break even?

cost doesnt include advertising which tron had a lot of and studio has to split box office with theaters.
