What was originally supposed to be a two-part film suddenly had to be compressed into one if something breaks, I can fix something, no reshoots were ordered due to negative test screenings, and adjustments were also supposedly made to avoid the comparison to an MCU film while Disney was in the midst of acquiring Fox, who was partly blamed for the film's poor marketing. The horrible reviews were the final nail in the coffin for Dark Phoenix, which made approximately $250 million on a $200 million budget, reportedly losing $100 million, and is currently the lowest-grossing X-Men movie to date. we will leave no one behind I will NOT put this team in further danger number 9 Green Lantern will be released the same year As Thor and Captain America, the First Avenger, Green Lantern was seen as a possible launching point for a DC Cinematic Universe, Given the film's dismal box office results, it's not surprising that DC decided to start over with Man of Steel two years later, plans for a Green Lantern.

The trilogy was also quickly scrapped with a production budget of $200 million and another $100 million earmarked for marketing. The film supposedly needed to gross half a billion dollars to be considered a worthwhile investment. Rinne is never wrong, this time she did it unfortunately for the studio. Green Lantern earned just under two hundred and twenty million dollars worldwide, losing more than it costs to produce Deadpool. How ironic that a movie about a superhero dressed in green couldn't bring in the Fantastic Four's green number eight a couple of years before Disney came along. With $71 billion to burn, Fox made one

-ditch effort to prove they could make a watchable Fantastic Four movie.

If audiences took to Fox's gritty take on the colorful superhero team well, at the end of its opening weekend, the film came in second at the domestic box office to Mission Impossible, Rogue Nation which had already been in theaters for more than a week in North America. Fantastic Four grossed $56.1 million, which is about what its 2005 predecessor earned in its opening weekend alone. Hey, it's fantastic with a total take of a hundred. and sixty-seven point nine billion dollars, the movie lost almost 100 million with a budget of no less than 120 million, we assumed that its loss was the use of MC, enough when your world is destroyed and I am all that remains, then there will be enough number. seven monster trucks a movie about monster trucks that are literally monsters that live inside trucks doesn't exactly scream bonafide success, however, we guess the idea offers some possibilities for tie-in merchandise, there's something going on here, something crazy and neither I don't even know how to begin to explain, maybe this could have made a respectable profit on a modest budget of twenty-five million dollars.

This studio recklessly decided to spend $125 million on monster trucks. However, we can only assume that one of the studio heads thought this was going to happen. to be the next Ninja Turtles or the Ninja Turtles built a fan base with comic book and cartoon toys, although the monster trucks charged blindly down the fast lane without any driving experience, grossing sixty-four point five million dollars in everyone, which was instead meant to boost a franchise. lost approximately one hundred and twenty 3.1 million dollars his family was looking for his parents number six JOHN CARTER Disney has broken one box office record after another in recent years, but the company has also produced some of the world's biggest bombs in

On the brink was the dangerous new power that threatens to destroy our helium city. House of Mouse apparently had high hopes that this adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' classic sci-fi novel would be another Pirates of the Caribbean, so why else would they have invested $350 million into its production and marketing, you could take a trip to outer space for just a fraction of the film's budget. The gain is that what she finances are sacred messengers of the goddess; All that money couldn't fill the theaters, since John Carter only made seventy-three million dollars domestically and two hundred and eighty-four point one million overall, although John Carter caused a $200 million writedown.

Disney bought Lucasfilm just a few months later, so it wasn't the end of the world for them according to the ancient rite. of moons and water are united husband and wife number five The BFG on paper The BFG seemed to be too big to fail my giant country was being distributed by Disney was based on a precious book by literary legend Roald Dahl and directed by Mark El Steven Spielberg's return to family entertainment, unlike some of the other films on this list, BFG also had mostly positive reviews on its side for some reason, although more people wanted to see the election year purge and the legend of Tarzan during the 4th of July weekend.

It won't be like that it will stop the Giants it will make them disappear forever earning just over 55 million dollars in North America and 180 3.3 million dollars in total The BFG had much lower returns than expected how Willy Wonka BFG could become a classic cult one day but it likely won't recoup its $140 million budget anytime soon. There is only one word for that Magister number four. The motion capture animation Mars Needs Moms can really rack up a movie budget, but with the right source material, i.e. Polar Express or A Christmas. Carol, it can result in great financial rewards.

My life would be so much better if I didn't have to be an annoying mother. My life would be so much better if I didn't have a mother. A peculiar children's book like Mars. Needs Moms wasn't particularly suited to such amazing valley tech, however, a project like this should have opted for a bright cartoonish look with a budget of no more than $30 million. Aled Jimmy Neutron, instead someone wrote a $150 million check for an inevitable bomb. Mars Needs Moms grossed $39 million and yes, that was the film's worldwide gross. I know it's not fair, not only was it Disney's biggest flop to date, but it also marked the end of digital imaging engines between John Carter and Disney Should Stay Off Mars. number 3 47 Ronin we are very happy that Keanu Reeves returned in late 2010 because 47 Ronin looked like a certified professional killer.

He will need the power of demons to see beyond the witch's disguise. You are a demon? No, this samurai fantasy action. Apparently it was a production nightmare as first-time director Carl Rinsch was given a budget of one hundred and seventy-five million dollars and after reshoots he was excluded from the editing process. I will not rest until justice is done. I will not sleep until our master lies in peace and he will. Do not pray unless it is to ask heaven for forgiveness. One source claimed that the film's budget increased to $225 million, meaning it would have to gross half a billion dollars just to break even, while the Universal executive disputed those $40 figures.

Seven Ronin still needed to earn well over thirty-eight million dollars domestically. We Are 47, he didn't fare much better in Japan, where the film opened with $1.3 million. With a final gross of just $151.8 million, Reeves is lucky that John Wick was less than a year away, Cats number two, the theatrical version of Cats earned nearly four billion dollars in everyone, giving new life to the Broadway musical you haven't seen before. Was the film version of Cats such a catastrophic failure that it probably would have killed the movie musical if Frozen 2 hadn't come out a month earlier, which said Cats was completely overshadowed by the Frozen sequel, not to mention the rise of Skywalker Katz? is already developing a so-bad-it's-good reputation, not unlike the room where the room cost only six million dollars to make, yet the cats had a budget of $95 million, well that's not going to work, that's why I'm telling you it will take a lot of late-night screenings and Home Media sales for this to show a profit in early 2020.

Universal is forecasting an estimated loss between $71 million and $100 million. Oh, I want to say they stole the cats, but no, no. It was actually really bad before we revealed our number one pick.

Number one deadly engines with a production budget between 100 and 150 million dollars. Deadly Engines was a risky venture for Universal. Give me everything you've got when Peter Jackson is attached as writer and producer. although a risk may begin to seem like a sure thing. I heard that before I just need a little more time. Oh, also, the movie was based on a much-loved novel by Philip Reeve that invited great franchise potential. The studio knew it was big. problems when Mortal Engines only grossed $7.5 million during its opening weekend. I'll rule out that it was all downhill from there, as the film plummeted 77 percent during its second weekend grossing just eighty-three point seven million dollars worldwide.

Mortal Engines crashed and burned thanks to - lukewarm reviews and high post-production costs from the holiday season further contributed to the studio's monumental loss of one hundred and seventy-four point eight million dollars.
