What Were The Biggest Recent Bombs du Cinema?
Glancing through some of the figures on boxofficemojo.com, I found the following to be among the most loudly squawking turkeys of the modern age. ![]()
(Admittedly, these figures don't include foreign grosses or possible DVD revenues, but they also don't factor the enormous marketing costs into the budgets.)
*Nine. Made almost $20 million. Cost $80 million. Lost way more than nine bucks.
*The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. Made $7,569,100. Cost 30 million. It was too imaginarium, I guess.
*The Road. Made $8,117,000. Cost $25 million. That's a road to poverty, honey.
And some more current flicks:
*The Wolfman. Has taken in $61,792,000 so far. Cost $150 million. Growl.
*The Last Station. Has grossed $5,737,000. Cost $18 million. Ouch-a-ma-goucha, Mrs. Tolstoy.
Meanwhile, Green Zone also looks to be bleeding green, but it's out there in a lot of theaters, so now's your chance to by a ticket and keep it off the pity list!
