Movies that flopped, but should have been a hit

[OmegaK2099]

The only Star Wars film to flop, and I don’t even think it deserves that honor.
Hell even the terrible Clone Wars pilot made money at the box office

That movie was dope my only gripe being that the main guy looks nothing like Harrison Ford, other than that I dont see why it's not embraced by the fans more.

They had good reason not to.

Cut Throat Island was one of the biggest flops ever, (made only 10 million on an almost 100 million dollar budget )blamed on pirates only for pirates of the carribean to become a huge franchise less than a decade later.

And when Geena Davis was on fire.

And while Long Kiss didn't exactly flop, it was forgotten and Bourne came through and took off.

Forgot all about this flick. Barely finished it the first time. What a stupid idea.

There's a scene like this in Contact (Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey I think) with a young breh bending his feet like that towards the end if I recall correctly
But dunno which came out before the other
But I've watched it more than 20 years ago

This shouldn't have flopped it's still a good movie and Robert Deniro puts on another stellar performance playing another disturbed individual.

No...That's not Contact, its the same movie. I posted a gif earlier, but here's the video clip:


You're getting confused because the opening scenes of "The Arrival" and "Contact" are similar. Both movies start with scientists working with radio telescopes getting signals from aliens.
Contact (1997) :


The Arrival (1996) :
