Movies that flopped, but should have been a hit

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

 

[OmegaK2099]

Probably Paul WS Anderson's best sci fi action movie that plays out more like a western in space and chooses to focus on Kurt Russell's character and acting. A wolverine style story about a killing machine that thought he found peace for once.

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Dredd (2012)

Watch this again last night...

Very underrated action film...

Book of Eli was a hit and almost gave the Hughes Brothers their first 100+million domestic gross.

 

[Jugernot]

Scott Pilgrim vs The World I think it's a hit but I just know it flopped

Damn, I didn't even know this was a flop. It had soo many people who ended up having great careers in it. I saw it years later and just assumed it was a hit smh. What a creative and fun movie.

Lots of Spike Lee and Oliver Stone films

Man, I really like Jumper. I wanted to see the mom (Dianne Lane) go after David (Anakin) and to see the lore of “jumpers” further explained/explored, but it flopped.

 

[Son Goku]

Lots of Spike Lee and Oliver Stone films

Of course they did.

In that Tom Cruise thread someone brought up The Edge of Tomorrow, and I was thinking it was so underrated
The movie was funny as fukk and had great action plus Tom Cruise played against type.


If the movie had been directed by James Cameron or Spielberg it might’ve been a hit

I just rented this on YouTube, watching this now and I'm all in so far. Its good

Movie was dope

Here's another one.
Equlibrium:



Everyone assumed it would be a low budget Matrix ripoff.

came in here to post this and requiem of a dream. requiem was rated nc17 and altho they double the profit, it should have been way bigger. it was one of the realest movies id ever seen. down to the acting and editing. that movie is epic and highly underrated.

on a lighter note: is Hancock considered a flop? i just saw it recently and notice no one ever talks about it. I was entertained.

 

[OmegaK2099]

I thought the A-Team was horrible and deserved to flop.

The Losers was good though.

I remember being mildly interested in the A team because it had rampage Jackson in it

They shouldn't have gone away from the comic book then they just ended upaking cookie cutter shyt.

wanted was a shytty comic.

 

[TheNig]

John Carter

First movie I thought of.


Not sure why TK doesn't do well as a lead. I thought he was about to be the next Tom Cruise.

 

[Amor fati]

13 Ghosts
