What are some movies that didn't deserve to flop?

The Star Wars Solo movie. They barely marketed for it, iirc, which is a shame, because I thought it was pretty good! And it set up stories that I’ll be bummed we don’t get to see play out. Plus Donald Glover as Lando was beautiful casting
Naaah, hard disagree. I saw it some time ago finally, it was bad. Not as terrible as the latest trilogy, mind you, but not much better either.

Yeah, I know a lot of people didn’t like it. I thought the sequel trilogy wasn’t very good, especially the third. I think it suffered a lot from changing directors. I would have liked to see a trilogy wholly directed by Rian Johnson

Edge of Tomorrow didn't do great when it was in theatres but turned into something of a 'cult classic' years later. I didn't know what to expect going in but enjoyed it quite a bit.

My kid and I argue about this. He hates it, but I think you gotta come at it like Han is telling the story. Not my favorite SW movie, but way better than a lot of the other filler we got. Its a fun movie told by an outrageous liar.

I found the other person who liked the Solo movie besides me!

Such a horrible title for a decent movie. Then they tried to rename it for home video and just made it worse! It’s like they hired the team that names Microsoft products.

Did that flop? Think it did ok here in the UK.

That movie was terrible.

Tomorrowland (2015), it's a bit all over the place with pacing/story but still a really fun movie.
Yeah.. no couldn’t get past the 50 year lusting after the tweener robot.

They're actually, finally working on a sequel!

Big Trouble in Little China. Was expected to be the smash hit of 1986, but poor marketing killed it. Perhaps it was also a decade or three ahead of its time.

I avoided it for a long time, finally watched it, and loved it. Why do I ever listen to anyone else?

Babylon. Everybody hated it, I loved everything about it. The excess, the color, the sprawling epic, the acting, the music. Underrated, underappreciated masterpiece, there will be a re-appraisal at some point.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
That was such a fun watch

Dredd
That movie was killed by poor marketing that played up nothing but the 3D aspect of it. They even named it in the trailers as Dredd 3D.
All they had to do is air the first 30 seconds of the movie as a trailer and it would have been off to the races...
