MSN Entertainment claims that the movie "The Adventures of Pluto Nash" is the biggest flop of all time. Costing between 90-100 million and only taking in Approx. 4.4 million. Sad to see Eddie Murphy hit such a low.

I was going to say the same thing

 
OMG they spent $100 million on pluto? How could they have?! I couldn't believe they were actually making a movie that looked so patently retarded and as a result never have, and never will watch it. I'm glad it flopped - serves them right for making such a silly looking piece of crap.

Have you seen it?
 
Town And Country (2000)

With a negative cost of $85 million (that's the cost of the actual film before the studio starts shelling out for prints and advertising) and only $6.7 million taken after a month at the cinemas, T&C is reported to be, officially, the biggest flop of all time (with only 8% of its total cost recouped).


Yeah...my (ex)wife and I rented that once...HORRID film.
 
From the article I linked:

Psychedelic Cop (2002)

The story of an undercover policeman who finds he has a split personality. Didn't get to hear of it? Not that surprising as it was made in Hong Kong. Problem is, the Chinese didn't get to hear of it either. The film has made history as one of the biggest flops of all time by attracting fewer than 10 viewers. According to reports, it took a total of £26 at the box office. The South China Morning Post stated the movie was given a one-week run at a cinema in the Fanling district of the city, then given a 'limited' release on video (presumably to an audience of friends and relatives). The second worst-performing movie in Hong Kong was 2002's Colour Of Pain. Made by casino owner Stanley Ho, who bankrolled the project for his daughter Josie who starred in it, the film took £150 over a two-week run.

Here is some article about top ten movie flops of all time. Don't know if it's the one you're talking about or not.

That article was really interesting, thanks. I especially like the speculation on Battlefield Earth, Travolta, and Scientology.

Actually, Glitter was a very cheap movie to produce (watch it, you'll see). I I think that it made somewhere around 2.5 million, which should have paid for it.
