If I burn down my house, I lose money. Should I be able to claim insurance on that?

If your insurance policy covers that (unlikely because of this exact situation), then sure.
No insurance company in the world will pay out insurance if you commit arson against your own house because that's stupid. Same thing should apply here. Destroying a film to get a tax break at the very least should incur penalties
The penalty is that they lose money at the end of the day. It is not a sustainable business practice.
