Films that Bombed

...according to the Guardian, these films lost a (inflation adjusted) hundred million dollars or more

I confess there are some here that I've not even heard of - but I've seen three, namely Cutthroat Island and Sahara, which are pleasant enough if you've had a drink or two, and Heaven's Gate, which is a masterpiece. How many have you seen, and are there any that you'd recommend?

Cutthroat Island
The Alamo (2004)
The Adventures of Pluto Nash
Sahara
Mars Needs Moms
The 13th Warrior
Town & Country
Speed Racer
Heaven’s Gate
Stealth

The only one of those I have seen is Cutthroat Island (first 10 mins) - how on earth did that film cost more than $100million?

Is this "creative loss-making accountancy" at work?

I saw Saraha.....it was rubbish

Never heard of any of them.

Never saw any of them either.

Ah it's an inflation adjusted list. Interesting how the list changes over time.

Only seen cuthroat island, as a few on that list are recent.

Surprised that The Dambusters isn't on the list.

Sahara was bad.

The Book is ok.

I went to see Cuthroat Island at the cinema and really enjoyed it. It was on the TV recently. No idea why it bombed though.

For recent failures, I think John Carter will be top of the list. I saw it 3 days after it opened, and I think there were maybe 15 people in total watching it. Again, I enjoyed it, so what do I know?

Its all relative isnt it? I enjoyed a couple of those too.

Thought Waterworld would have been on that list, that bombed. I love that film though!

John Carter should be on that list......

Stardust absolute rubbish de niro must of been paid nicely to appear

"Motherhood" starring Uma Thurman bombed quite spectacularly, but the budget was only $10m so it doesn't make the list. According to Wikipedia: "The box office gross was £9 on its opening night and £88 on its opening weekend; only eleven viewers purchased a ticket, with only one person attending its first showing."

I love that film. De Niro and his crew were brill, Hahaaaaarr.

How about Revolution. Filmed in 1985, with Al Pacino and Donald Sutherland- I remember how exciting it was for King's Lynn to have a blockbuster filmed there. And then no one went to see it! It won the 'worst' awards for just about everything. I never saw it either.

I like the sound of Mars needs Moms though!

One of my favourite films dat...

People are put off by the name. The film in the big screen is an entertaining yarn with a few twists and a magnitude better than the Lord of the Rings trilogy which I managed to fall asleep through

I enjoyed Sahara, wouldn't mind seeing more of Cusslers' books in film.
