The Biggest Box Office Bombs of 2024
Biggest Box Office Bombs Of 2024
Furiosa didn't deserve, such a good movie, it fit so well as Mad Max prequel
So these costs do not appear to include the often massive marketing costs that can run into tens if not hundreds of millions for big blockbusters? Unless I am missing something.
Strange that they include Kraven Hunter in the list but not Madame Web which had a greater loss of like $100m?
Wikipedia seems to imply Madame Web (which is indeed an early 2024 movie) made $500k.
No way. It made 100 million worldwide on an 80 million budget. Advertising would have been 40 to 80 million.
It lost at least 20 million.
I know a lot of people didn't like it, but I loved Megalopolis. It's so ambitious, has great cinematography, and it's weird. I thought it was well acted and will be a cult classic in a decade. It is a little weird that the main character is the only person with a superpower (stopping time) and it has almost no impact on the story, but that just adds to the weird appeal for me.
Megaopolis and Babylon are weirdly similar to me and I can't really explain it. I enjoyed Megaopolis and would watch it again. Especially Wow Platinum lol. Such a weird movie. So many scenes were like "damn, I feel like this is supposed to be symbolic but I don't know for what." Sort of the opposite of "sometimes the curtains are just blue" lol.
and will be a cult classic in a decade.

I knew Joker 2 didn't do well but I'm shocked it did this poorly. How was the budget that high anyway?
Likely due to Todd Phillips, Joaquin Phoenix, and Lady Gaga demanding huge salaries. Other than that, I'm not sure.
I'm glad to see i wasn't the only one saddened to see Mad Max on the list with all those other terrible movies... It wasn't the best one of the series, but it wasn't bad either. I enjoyed it a lot, and the funny thing is I wanna say it's 1 of only 2 movies I saw in the theater last year. I did my part, lol.
It was ok but it didn't feel like a film, it felt more like a couple of episodes of a big budget tv show stitched together.
I haven't seen the other movies, but Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga was actually pretty good, I'm glad it got made.
This movie had one of the worst marketing campaigns I've seen in a long time... Every trailer made it look like hot garbage and cash grab trash pumped out by Hollywood to fill a quota
they probably dint have enough people buying tickets for it to overcome how much they spent.
That's usually what indicates a box office bomb.
Yeah, Furiosa really didn't deserve to flop.
Borderlands only lost $80 million???
Yeah, that's the power of a brand
