wasnt it also incredibly popular?

WTF?

Something else I noticed: The only movies bringing in more than 100 are big fancy 3D spectaculars, and mostly only the family and kid ones. Inception is the only exception to that rule for many years back.

It was a flop in the box office from what I remember, but became a huge cult hit after.

Still one of my favorite movies.

These are the movies with the biggest margins. There are tons of similarities among them, and its NOT related to how good they actually are.

wat?

Looks like movies sorted by which sold the most $$$ for the year. Avengers has brought in 43% or whatever of the total 2012 sales.

Lets see:

Comic books/cartoons
Sci-fi/fantasy
Sequels
Special Effects

I wasn't high or drunk when I watched it so I hated it. Never watched it again.

3D extravaganzas, mostly geared towards families and kids.

1) wasn't such an awesome movie. it had a couple great bits, like the one where he reverse-psychology-es the cop, but after all it wasn't that good. imo the book itself is overrated.
2) is drug-themed, which will not go down well with the adult crowd, believe it or not.look at the reviews on IMDB for Limitless for example (much less of a drug film than this is), so much hate for drug users.
3) johnny depp wasn't that famous back then. he even did Dead Man which nobody watched(i did, it was dreadful).
4) it's an old flick. people have moved on.

I watched the movie and didn't like it at all. The premise wore thin very early, but it just kept going on, and on, and on...

It was fucking terrible! Easily Depp's worst movie.
