Movies that flopped, but should have been a hit

[OmegaK2099]

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.

I remember that flick but did it deserve to be a be a hit?

I dont think so but it should have made more than just 10 million.

I thought Waterworld was fine. Not saying it shoulda been a hit, but it could’ve done better.

That was Costner’s character, right? I don’t even remember him being such an a$$hole; just grumpy came to mind when I think about it.

Hard to get behind a character that tried to barter some alone time with a woman and child for some paper. Literal paper.

It wasn't a flop at all because it was on Netflix and it was still acclaimed but I think 'The Irishman' would've been way way better with a younger cast. I know Scorsese had to reunite the gang and do it one more time but I wished he would've put the old guard in different roles in the film and let some younger actors whil' out and do damage. They were just so flabby n sick in this and having them do young boy shyt was tough on the eyes and hard to watch imo. I don't think he gets a huge budget like this to do a personal pet project like this one again. I think it was wasted. He should've gave us this last Goodfellas/Mean Streets/Scarface iteration for this generation while he had the opportunity.

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
