Hearing Sean say “let him cook” made my day
Same 😂
One of the only gen z terms that isn’t annoying
@@WhyIsGamora109 facts
Sean I turned big 19 today!! Thank you for inspiring me to keep going with my movie reviews! Hope to see you soon at another advanced screening!
Happy birthday bro! I just turned 19 like 2 weeks ago as well!
@@superherofan198 Happy Birthday man! And thank you!!
Happy Birthday dude. I turned 19 too 20 years ago 😂
@@tarikh20 Haha thanks man 😂
Ey happy bday bro, turned 19 myself in July 🔥🔥 enjoy!
The fact that both Blade Runner movies initially bombed, yet, they're both some of the richest, most thematically deep, and incredible films I've seen feels like a crime.
“The fall guy” was a pleasant surprise for me! Unfortunate that it didn’t make much at the box office.
I had same experience with Road House remake! I was all set to hate it lol. But the story was different enough from original and a lot of fun in my opinion.
One of the biggest tragedies in Hollywood is that Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves didn't do well.
Agreed
Because the film makers bragged about intentionally emasculating the men
I love ‘Terminator: Dark Fate’. I know it makes some bold choices, but I think it tells a very entertaining twist on the original story and is thoroughly entertaining
Agreed, 3rd best film in the franchise for me
I loved it
There have been a lot of these movies this decade so far: "The Last Duel", "In the Heights", "Furiosa", "The Suicide Squad", "Stillwater", "Babylon", "The Fabelmans", "The Covenant", and "Joy Ride"
My top 5:
1. Shawshank Redemption
2. Fight Club
3. The Thing
4. Warrior
5. Furiosa
Just look at those list 👀 they're classics and Masterpiece. Even I would easily say Furiosa as well.
Fight club is my favorite movie of all time. It is crazy that it flopped when it came out as well as the other four that you just mentioned, it just shows that great movies flop as well
Damn I never new fight club was bomb, that’s one of my absolute favourites of all time
Dredd was so good, both my dad & I loved it. We couldn't believe it didn't do well.
"Fight Club", "The Fabelmans", "Last Night in Soho", "Kinds of Kindness", "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World", "The Thing (1982)", "The Shawshank Redemption", "Doctor Sleep", "Tenet", "Birds of Prey", "The Suicide Squad (2021)", etc. are my favorite underperformers.
I love, LOVE Dr. Sleep and I hope as times continues to pass it gets more recognition and love.
Shawshank redemption is one of the most brilliant films ive ever seen
Watched it for the first time earlier this year and i was absolutely blown away
Annihilation and Blade Runner 2049 are my favorite sci-fi movies ever
Im a huge fan of Waterworld with all the chaos behind the scenes.A massive storm destroyed the practical floating sets,they had to rebuild most of them.
Blade Runner 2049 not only nails the cynical atmosphere of the original but also allows the world to evolve without relying on cheap nostalgia or excessive cameos. At its core, it is a movie about discovering humanity, and I'm sad that this story wasn't marketed properly to a 2010s audience.
100% agree with this take
I hated that movie, it was not a good sequel at all. Blade runner was not a classic but pretty good and part of Harrison’s golden period.
Furiosa didn't deserve to bomb, literally one of if not the best movie of 2024.
I would throw Water World into the ring. I love that movie lol. Plus I've always liked Costner.
My Picks-In no Particular Order:
-Alex Garland's Annihilation
-The Iron Giant
-Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
-The Secret of Kells
-Mission Impossible 7
-The Suicide Squad
-The Shift (Angel Studios)
-The Best of Enemies
-Ordinary Angels
-All Dogs go to Heaven
-The Rescuers: Down Under
-Alice in Wonderland (Disney Cartoon)
I personally know the director of the Shift, and I too, am sad it only made $12 million. ):
@joshhickeysmoviereviews yeah, I mean The Shift has room for improvement, but man I was excited to see it. I wonder why it didn't make money.
@@jacindaellison3363 Because there was virtually no marketing, it's a pro-Christian film, the critics hated it because it was pro-Christian.....
@joshhickeysmoviereviews I have to respectfully disagree. Usually when a Christian movie has most critics disliking it, that won't them from attending the film. I see where there was really no marketing for the film as, I guess, all that marketing was put in Sound of Freedom which is currently Angel Studios' highest grossing movie of 2023. Then, let's not forget His Only which I didn't hear about except from a YT channel called Say Goodnight, Kevin, who gave it a great review on it.
Tbh, I think the reason the movie didn't make money was 2 reasons: 1) lack of marketing and 2) I think there are Christians who believe sci-fi and the Bible can't go together because they think if it's sci-fi it may be blasphemous.
I think my favourite box office bomb has got to be Howard the duck. I seriously love that movie 😊
As someone who lost his daughter, The Flash resonated with me too.
Sean, I completely agree with you on the Flash. I've lost both my parents and the scene at the end when he's saying goodbye to his mom really got to me. I also loved Dredd. A couple of recent movies I liked that didn't do well are The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and 65.
Here is my top 10 box office bombs😂:
1 - Furiosa
2 - The Flash
3 - The Shawshank Redemption
4 - Dredd
5 - Masters of the Universe
6 - The Fabelmans
7 - The Iron Giant
8 - Edge of Tomorrow
9 - Over the Top
10 - Street Fighter (1994)
Flash was awful. Everything else is ok.
@@ronb792Shawshank is okay?
@@williamstormo2922Shawshank is incredible, I also highly recommend The Green Mile, another non-horror film by Stephen King
Sorry to here about your dad man I had no idea the happened such a long time ago. But Im glad you got past it and may he rest in peace ❤❤
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and The Suicide Squad are Two that come to mind for Me.
One of my favorite bombs that I see no one talking about, is Transformers: The Movie from 1986. Forever a cult classic to me.
One of my favorite movies of all time is Children of Men. That movie was also a box office bomb when it initially came out, but it has eventually become a cult classic of the sci fi/dystopian genre as well as arguably one of the most acclaimed and beloved films of the 21st Century.
This was a fun list. So many of these movies are bonafide classics today. Love Shawshank Redemption & Office Space from your list. Other box-office bombs I love are It's a Wonderful Life, That Thing You Do!, The Rocketeer, Galaxyquest and Conspiracy Theory.
Scott pilgrim had been my favorite movie of all time since it came out when I was 4
Much love to you, Sean. ❤
mine would probably be Scream 4, Last Action Hero and Terminator: Dark Fate
1. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
2. Edge of Tomorrow
3. The Thing
4. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning
5. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
6. Blade Runner: 2049
7. The Shawshank Redemption
8. The Suicide Squad
9. Children of Men
10. Warrior
11. The Flash
12. The Creator
13. The Killers of the Flower Moon
14. Godzilla (1998)
15. Dredd
Godzilla 98, you have good taste
That's a lot of fish.
Godzilla 98 was Godawful
Treasure planet, The Nice Guys, The Iron Giant to just name a few
Bombs I've loved
1. MI: Dead Reckoning (favorite MI film)
2. Treasure Planet (favorite animated sci-fi film)
3. Road to El Dorado (favorite 2D film from Dreamworks)
@@ryanking8227 I would say Dead Reckoning disappointed rather than bombed.
@@zackarydecicco3919I agree. I thought the action was poorly shot for Mission Impossible, too much of the action was in close ups, especially the car chase scene, the villain was weak and thought the AI plot could’ve been a great plot point.
@@sergioliden5652 I loved Dead Reckoning. I was saying I think it disappointed at the box office, but it didn’t bomb
You know that little voice that tells you when to stop? You don't have that do you?
The three that always spring to my mind are Big Trouble in Little China, Streets of Fire, and Flesh + Blood. All three were probably a bit ahead of their time.
I really appreciate your candor in this video. Keep on keeping on!! You rock.
The ones that come immediately to my mind are The Shawshank Redemption and Treasure Planet, which are among my all time favorite movies. Shawshank specifically is my 6th favorite movie of all time 🔥 Oh and Blade Runner 2049! And more recently, I really loved Fall Guy and Furiosa too
The but shawshank did insanely well on home video, so idk if it's a full-on flop .
@@scottyskywalker5768 fact is it still was a box office flop specifically, meaning it didn’t do great in theaters. Streaming and home release is different
@@NinthShinigami finally someone else mentioned Furiosa!
@@knyte8706 heck yeah 🔥
Some of my favorite films that bombed 💣badly at the box office are:
"Curly Sue"
"Blade Runner 2049"
John Carpenter's "The Thing"
"The Shawshank Redemption"
"The Relic"
Chuck Russell's "The Blob"
"Dredd"
"Deep Rising"
I think we should discuss the differences between: Commercially successful, Critically Successful, and Cult Sucessful.
The CCC of what a movie wants to sucessed
Agreed, it's definitely important to distinguish as either one of those can still make it "successful" in the filmmaker's eyes or in the viewer's eyes:
Commercially Successful - Transformers
Critically Successful - The Last Duel
Cult Successful - Dredd
All 3 - Rocky
Some movies that I enjoyed that bombed at the box office
1. Blue Beatle
2. Scream 4
3. Mission Impossible 7
4. Skyscraper
5. Scooby-Doo 2
6. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
7. Halloween Ends
8. Blacklight
9. Batman Returns
10. Aquaman 2
Batman Returns, Skyscraper & Halloween Ends were not box office bombs. Even Scream 4 probably broke even on its theatrical release although it is the black sheep of the Scream franchise box office wise. Otherwise good picks.
Scream 4 did bomb. It only made 97 million, compared to the first 3 that made over 100 million. It bombed due to poor marketing. Not very many people knew about it.
@@billymoore7182 Scream 4 certainly underperformed compared to the rest of the franchise but with a 97 million gross on a 40 million budget, it may still have broken even in theatres. Not a success by any means but hard to call it an out and out bomb imo.
@@billymoore7182 Scream 4 made in between 2 and 2.5 times its budget. It disappointed, but it didn’t bomb
@@billymoore7182the heck is ur list
Spinal Tap, that’s a great call! It was infamously deemed “not funny” by musicians of the time like Gene Simmons and Ozzy Osbourne, because it reminded them too much of their own experiences
My favorite Box Office Bomb is Clue from 1985. Given the title, it’s an adaptation of the board game, and it’s a phenomenal one at that. It’s got a phenomenal cast of characters with some stars like Tim Curry and Christopher Lloyd, it can be very funny at times, and it’s very intriguing. But at the box office, it couldn’t even make back its low production budget! It only costed $15 million to make, and only made $14.6 million in its initial release. Nearly 40 years later, I still haven’t stumbled upon a cult following, so if you haven’t seen Clue, check it out. It’s a blast!
Recently watched it for the first time and absolutely loved it
@@ajstyles7678 “I DIDN’T DO IT”
It indeed is an absolute blast, great pick!
@@80sGeekChris-dg7ky my favourite quote from the film
colonel mustard: How many husbands have you had
Mrs white: Mine or other women's
@@ajstyles7678 😂 I always forget about that quote until I watch it, and laugh my head off
This year is goes to Furiosa.
One of my favourite films that bombed is one called Once Upon A Time In America. I highly recommend you check it out Sean.
Journey To Bethlehem, Narnia Prince Caspian, The Fall Guy, Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning, The Suicide Squad, Blade Runner 2049, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Blue Beetle, SCOOB! All great movies that deserved to do much better.
The Last Duel, Ad Astra, Dragged Across Concrete, Sahara, Collateral Damage, Soldier, The Glimmer Man, Stealth, The Lone Ranger, Cutthroat Island, The Art of War, Poseidon, Cowboys and Aliens and Bullet to the Head.
My Favorite Box Office Bombs (That I Know Off Hand Bombed):
1) Zodiac 2007 (When accounting for the promotion budget and the movie theaters' cuts)
2) The Shawshank Redemption
3) Donnie Darko
4) The Suicide Squad
5) Air
6) The Creator
7) The Flash
8) The Marvels
9) Killers Of The Flower Moon
10) Romeo & Juliet (Starring Hailee Steinfeld & Douglas Booth)
A couple of my favorites that you didn’t mention were.
1. Abigail
2. Matchstick Men
3. Stranger Than Fiction
I LOVE your #1 choice!!! That's an amazing movie!!!
Starship Troopers was the first rated R movie my dad took me too in theaters for my 14th birthday with a couple of my friends. When that shower scene happened on saw him put his hand to his in to say “wtf did I do…” hahaha
Say what you will about the flash...
I personally teared up at the end. Def underrated
Too many people couldn't separate ezra miller and his behaviour from the film,I really enjoyed the flash
My biggest issue with the Flash (to be fair I have not seen it but I have watched multiple comprehensive breakdowns and analyses of the plot) is that the whole story is about the fact that we can't change the past and we have to move on. Barry says goodbye to his mother, having learnt his lesson, but then he immediately changes something in the past that will get his dad out of jail. It completely invalidates the point and lesson he's meant to learn. Sure he didn't get his mother back but he was still able to improve his circumstances by messing with time. If they didn't make that one choice, I think the film's emotional core could have more to stand on
Well, the movie didn’t really have a main villain to be stopped. Flash stopping the tomatoes from imprisoning his dad is the only justice we get in this thing. 😂
Warrior is quite a good movie. Regardless of the believability of the fights, the story is extremely wonderful. It's not just a fight movie. It's something else completely.
That "let him cook" caught me off guard!
Here's a news flash I learned. As legendary as the movie is now, The Wizard of Oz wasn't that big of a hit at first.
@@AJDaniels99 It’s A Wonderful life too. I believe both movies became popular once cable television was a thing.
Here are five of mine:
-2011’s the Three Musketeers
-Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull
-mannequin
-Taxi with Jimmy Fallonand Queen Latifah
-Pixels
The A-Team! I love that movie and I won't apologize for it!
Some movies I like that BOMBED at the box office are Thomas & The Magic Railroad, Chaplin, Lightyear, The Monuments Men, PT 109, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, and lastly I'll say, Barney's Great Adventure (well, I liked the movie when I was a little kid because Barney was a show I loved so much back then). That's all I can think of, Sean.
Dredd need a second Movie! Underrated!
Dungeons and Dragons Honor among thieves, Speed Racer, Chronicles of Riddick, Iron Giant, Zathura.
13:27 me with Pirates part two and three, over part one. 😤
For me, my favorite bomb is Furiosa. I’ve recently fallen in love with the Mad Max series (well, this one and Fury Road anyways; not quite as passionate about the old films), so this one was naturally the first to come to my mind. It’s a true tragedy that it didn’t perform as well as it should’ve cus it’s genuinely a great movie and my personal favorite of the year.
The marketing and even the title just didn’t do it justice (perhaps it would’ve been better to call it “a Wasteland Saga” or something), and the circumstances were all against it. Many people assumed it was gonna be another crappy “girl boss” flick which turned them off (understandable), while others just expected an inferior Fury Road with more CGI and less practical effects which is simply an unfair comparison.
Dredd was way ahead of its time i love it
Especially in 3d
I honestly liked Expendables 4. There I said it… great video man!
1. Shawshank Redemption
2. Edge of Tomorrow
3. Furiosa
4. Dredd
5.Rise of the Guardians
6. Chronicles of Riddick
7. Treasure Planet

4. Blade Runner 2049

1. It’s a Wonderful Life
If you would like to hear my thoughts on any of these movies I love, ask away and I’ll do my best to respond!
Not sure if it's on the Patreon exclusive, but I'd say The King of Comedy.
Fight Club came out Oct 1999, 25 years ago. Jeez, I’m old.
i’m content that you didn’t neglect to mention The Raid when discussing Judge Dredd! The Raid blew my M’F’n mind and Judge Dredd totally ripped off the idea. Most people don’t even know about the similarities so kudos to you sir👏
Redline 2009, Dredd 2012 & Scott Pilgrim vs the world.
Judge Dredd is one of my favorite action movies ever. Ugh it’s so good.
Some of my picks are The Long Kiss Goodnight, Last Action Hero, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, Stranger than Fiction, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, The Matador, The Nice Guys, A Scanner Darkly, both Bladerunner movies, Life Aquatic & Donnie Darko.
My top 3 top office bombs.
Catwoman
Speed Racer
The Giant Iguana That Ate New York...I mean Godzilla 1998.
Those are all bad movies 😅
There’s a few to be mentioned but I’ll just go with the one and it’s a film a lot of people don’t give a second look..
The Good Dinosaur.
I was about 18 when this film came out and as much as it’s a goofy looking movie about a boy and his dog/Dinosaur and his Human. The story and premise of it just resonated with me so much. I was definitely a very timid and scared kid, constantly anxious and introverted. It was hard to get out of it and I’m still that kind of character internally
I had to find my own confidence and courage growing up and Milo’s journey just hits so hard and close to home for me. People say it’s one of Pixar’s weaker stories but for me it’s one of their most realistic. Seeing how scared and useless Milo feels at the beginning isn’t far off how it actually is and to see him at the end of his journey just makes me so happy. Also Sam Eliot the Texas T-Rex and his speech was such a great moment it always pops in my mind every now and then haha
I love Dredd. Such a fun, great movie. Highly, highly underrated
One bomb I really liked was Abigail, the only reason it flopped was because it didn't stay in theatres for long enough
The movies I saw in the theater from your list:
The Shawshank Redemption (2 times)
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World
Fight Club (4 times)
The Suicide Squad
So I did my part. 😊
Same 3 for me Sean. The Suicide Squad, Warrior, and Dredd
Killer Klowns From Outer Space is *the* lovable box office bomb for me
Damn good list, Sean! You really turned it up to 11 on this one!❤
Seeing people in the comments still talk about Shawshank is so nice to hear. The movie is a treasure. I don't watch cable tv anymore. Is it still on repeat on certain stations? lol
BABLYON!! 🗣️
One of mine is Strange World, the Disney film. It was surprisingly touching and adventurous. Treasure Planet and Fantasia too.
My favourite box office bomb is that I love is Legend of the Guardians: the Owls of Ga'hoole. It's an animated Zack Snyder movie and it was ahead of it's time in animation
Haha I live in the "loving" bombs territory
Great video, a films quality and legacy should never be determined from box office alone
In my opinion, Dredd is the single most underrated movie of all time.
In order: Rise of the Guardians, Atlantis: the Lost Empire, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Hugo, and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
My favorite box office bombs movies were Dredd, The Suicide Squad, John Carter, Jupiter Ascending and Chappie. I didn't understand why Chaplie bomb in the box office, it got decent story and visual effects.
I saw those films except chappie, I rarely watch critically acclaimed films,prefer to make up my own mind
@@garypasquill2355 oh you should watch it, it's not a bad movie just your average sci-fi action flick. Also check out The Northman and The Green Knight one of the favorite critically fantasy films too.
Top of my head,the ones I love that bombed at the box office.
Bicentennial Man 1999
The Finest Hours 2016
West Side Story 2021
The Iron Giant 1999
Fathers Day 1997
Jack Frost 1998
Peter Pan 2003
Rise of The Guardians 2012
Sinbad Legend Of The Seven Seas 2003
Treasure Planet 2003
WW1984
Turning Red 2023
For me:
Spike Lee's Clockers is a very underrated film by him. Made $13 million on a $25 million budget
PTA's Magnolia, The Master and Punch Drunk Love
It's A Wonderful Life
The Iron Giant
Out of Sight
Pinocchio (1940)
The Suicide Squad
u know i really liked the king Arthur from like a decade ago which was a complete fail but i have a really great memory of it
A box office bomb that I love is The Crow. I know a lot of people hated it bit I don't care. The action was awesome as well as the visuals and soundtrack. But the best thing about it was Bill Skarsgard; that man continues to show how amazing of an actor he is.
You like Dr Sleep more than the Shining? ARE YOU OUTTA YOUR MIND? Lol great video as always!
13:20 man actually had a pretty strong argument ngl
I've always hoped for a Dredd 2. You would think with the ancillary market that Dredd would have passed into profitability by now.
One recent film for me is Godzilla: King of the monsters. In my opinion it is the best film in the monsterverse and a great homage to the early showa era films of Godzilla. All the monsters got a chance to shine and the visuals and soundtrack were breathtaking.
The problem with Dredd, a movie I love, was it is ultra violent at times.
Great list! For me definitely Dredd, as well as Terminator DF, The Suïcide Squad, Furiosa, The Thing, Godzilla KotM and In the Heights
