      Tomorrowland (2015), it's a bit all over the place with pacing/story but still a really fun movie.

        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

          Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Huge loss in cinema, big win when it get out in DVD. It make so little money that universal changed how they write movies after that

              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.

                            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.

                                      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.
