Biggest Box office flops...

[Nitemare]

LOL @ ZYZZYX RD, US Box Office: $30, 1/3 of which had to be refunded back

I actually enjoyed Howard the Duck and Hudson Hawke wasn't that bad, just a little too much "Moonlighting" for me

HAHAHA ZYZZYX wtf?

Dear Eddie, no more movies.

 

[Baked]

Wait, no Waterworld? Budget 175m, boxoffice 88m.

I thought Howard the Duck was pretty awesome for a sci-fi movie. I watched it on network TV though.

 

[darkswordsman17]

I love that Katherine Heigl and Tom Sizemore were in it.

 

[nageov3t]

why do they keep letting Eddie Murphy make movies?

I'm surprised Evan Almighty wasn't on the list.

 

[jpeyton]

Pluto Nash is the biggest IIRC; not percentage-wise, but gross loss.

Some movies you think should be on there may have recouped their costs and even made a profit in the home video market.

 

[EvilYoda]

First movie that came to mind was "Cleopatra" - adjusting for what it cost at the time, it's got to be one of the most losingest movies of all time.

(yeah, that's right, losingest)

Hudson Hawk was a complete POS, were you on mind-bending drugs when you saw it?

Such a classic

Damn, I remember seeing a trailer for Meet Dave recently, which I assumed was a preview. It's already pulled from theaters? I never even knew it had started its run!

I liked it too, but I was like 10 when I saw it.

I can take over for him. I loved it. It totally had the Moonlighting sense of humor. I can understand if that's not what you're into, but Moonlighting was a hit show.

Then again, I think "Shakes the Clown" and "Penn and Teller Get Killed" are works of art as well....

Yay! I think the movie was just way before it's time. People wanted another Die Hard clone and got a rude awakening.

Howard the Duck is worth watching just for the Lea Thompson underwear scenes.
