What have you got?

I will start and suggest Star Wars Episode I may be the most hyped/marketed movie I can think of.

Disney's John Carter. Its 306 million dollar budget wipes the floor with anything in recent history. Hyped af and by all accounts was a complete flop.

Avatar was another that was relentlessly advertised before it came out. Still haven't seen it.

Wow I haven't even heard of that film before. Not sure how I missed it. Kind of want to watch it now. Wikipedia says Disney lost $200 million on it.

Yep and I bet you that number is conservative. I have it on my Plex server and have watched it a couple of times. It's not a bad movie quit the opposite actually. It's really well done and if you're not familiar with the series the ending has a nice surprise twist.

I recall hearing something about it being made but not any details.

I DO however remember that I enjoyed the books as a kid.
