IIRC, the original plan was a series of movies, that take place in different cities around the world. The shit box office killed that. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

View Quote But UHF is the best movie ever made. |

I like many of those listed above, but could not agree with Waterworld.
The Big Lebowski is one of my all-time favorite movies. My wife doesn't get it. One I haven't seen mentioned is "A Midnight Clear". It is a WWII movie set at the time of the Battle of the Bulge. Saw it in the theater when it came out--I was in college and a history-buff friend took me. I hadn't seen it advertised at the time and I don't know if it even ever made general release. According to IMDB, it barely made $1.5 M with a budget of $5 M. Rob |

I don’t know enough about box office success on many of my favorites, so nothing really to add, but many mentioned here are among my favorites - especially The Thirteenth Warrior. I saw that one for the first time at Camp Doha, Kuwait. Never realized it was considered a bomb. Interesting to see the the divided reaction to a movie like The Postman, but I guess I can see where the central theme is offensive to the “burn it all down” types. View Quote |

The Golden Compass, 2007. I'm still waiting for the sequel. I loved The Golden Compass too, even though I read the books first. Great series, good movie, and Dakota nailed the role of Lyra (and was adorable as hell doing it). I haven't started the new series but I hope it's as good |

I agree with the previous posters. I really enjoyed this movie and it never crossed my mind it was a flop. I was eagerly awaiting the sequel.

Not too sure if flops but some of my favorite movies seems like no one ever heard of them
Clerks 1994 Mostly talking so alot of people just can't get into it ... 37 IN A ROW ?? Used Cars 1980 Classic Kurt Russel Jack Warden The black guy Frank McRae was so funny i literally was crying when the dog pissed on him The Rivers Edge 1986 Kind of a strange teenage apathy trip movie I was like 15 when this came out so i was like how are they not calling the cops on their psycho friend. But Crispin Glover just fucking nails the part of the under appreciated tweaker. Also a big fan of Dennis Hopper Keanu Reeves is the main char. Anyone else a fan of these movies ? |

I'm currently watching The 13th Warrior, which is free on Hulu. I think it is ranked as the number one box office flop of all time. I love it. I've probably watched it a half a dozen times, which is a lot for me. I watch very few movies more than once. Are there any that you guys like? View Quote The movie showed men doing manly stuff while displaying honor and good character. Of course it was going to flop. I have the film in my library and watch it occasionally. Very good story, very well crafted piece. |

I will just say yes to everyone’s replies, because I love so many movies that I didn’t even know were flops at the box office apparently.

Office Space Arfcom favorite Big Trouble in Little China had a $25million budget but only pulled in $11mill in the box office. |

I clicked on this thread thinking about the 13th Warrior. Me and my gun team used to watch that movie like twice a month back in the day. I still watch it every once in a while, love it.
ETA: Also Titan AE is one of my favorite movies of all time. |

It's a good movie in its own right, but Eaters of the Dead was a fantastic book. Much, much, better than the movie. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |
