unironically the worst movie I've ever seen.

Eddie Murphy movies are pretty much all shitty, even his best ones are just eh. His two standup specials are 100x funnier.
Has any movie lost more in returns? The marketing budget was probably 30mil on top of that budget.
???
He was good as musshu
Was this flick any good
Surprisingly Beverly Hills Cop 3 was an ultra shitfest as well.
Eddie Murphy should have played more roles
I thought it was ok desu
Eddie Murphy is the ultimate pleb filter. His works have multiple layers of meaning and the themes they face are usually much to deep of the grasp of your average moviegoer. I do believe that Eddie is one of the most underrated actors of both the XX and the XIX century.
Bowfinger was underated, but the first Nutty Professor was his last best

It's not fair, that movie was fucking good
It was my friend. I feel you. I admit being disappointed when I saw it at the theatre but in hindsight it wasn't half bad.
I watched this movie years before it came out from high quality Chinese bootleg when i worked at a video store, i though it was an old movie until i saw the announcement of it coming out, then it didn't make theaters near me, i was confused now it makes sense.
>How are they flops?
Every single one of those movies relies on spectacle over substance. Not saying that you can't sell a movie on spectacle, but it's so much harder to do that in the age of CGI stunt work where nothing is truly "holy shit how did they do that?" because the answer is "a render farm and a handful of underpaid nerds."
What did they mean by this?
This
It was embarrassing
They're still with her
now I'm gonna watch it
What's the biggest bomb ever?
Um, possibly that she has been a career politician for decades.

WOOF

also my filipino barber keeps telling me to watch harold and kumar for the same reason
how do you explain capeshit printing money?
John Carter. Funny enough, it wasn't even that terrible.
I'm the user who said it was good. Honestly I see the other guys' point but it's still a fun movie with Keanu

saw it sometime this year, it wasn't that bad.
corny as fuck, but not that ridiculous considering eddie murphy films.
Most of these movies are calculated risks. Almost none of them are make or break films.
Let's look at the movie bomb on a higher scale of risk and reward. Take for instance Ryan Gosling's Lost River. This sort of bomb has slammed the door shut on his career as anything above leading man.

Nothing, thank god
There's no fucking way John Carter bombed harder than Mars Needs Moms or Monster Trucks
It's based on previously established and popular media, spearheaded by charismatic performances and by this point, sheer momentum.
>all those 2016 movies
living proof that only capeshit matters anymore, cinema is dead
The movie lost $400,000,000 at the time, the head of movies at Disney got fired over it.
It was good but it wasn’t a final fantasy movie
It was a movie with the word "fantasy" in the name that turned out to be a sci-fi. It was fated to be dead on arrival. They were idiots for going the tech route when everybody associates the franchise with magic and big swords.
>it wasn't even that terrible.
No, it was a solid "good" and arguable "great"
>super inflated currency
>Clinton
about right.
Holy shit! How!? It was a good movie! I’m baffled by that.
It's actually a fantastic film. It didn't deserve the heat it got.
Very underrated. I own it on dvd and bluray.
And it is a pretty bad movie as well. I don't think it had a single joke that managed to hit the mark.
Honestly, it would make for a good FPS game. Too bad that Square decided to put the name FINAL FANTASY to it.
Hell no, it's one of the movies that I'll always regret seeing in cinema.
It looked really good for its time, but that can't excuse the ultra-shitty story. It also wasn't a Final Fantasy movie at all.
It came out 5 years too late
Did Rango make it's money back? Best CGI film ever.
Pluto Nash takes place in the alternate timeline where we colonize space instead of dying in a nuclear holocaust against North Korea.
i'm ashamed to admit i've seen pluto nash a few times
That's actually Hollywood accounting. Square took the construction costs for their CGI studio and included it in the budget, but did not include selling off the building in their profit. Actual movie was $30m.
It's in the same "metaverse" as the Final Fantasy games in that it involves the spirit crystal of one planet invading the spirit crystal of another planet, which is essentially the endgame plots of FF9 and FF14, but it was missing the genre trademarks people were expecting yes.
inflated budgets for retarded ideas
>100m for a fucking ben-hur remake
>hollywood accounting
I literally can't go to sleep thinking Hollywood is gonna make a box office bomb so big it's gonna cripple our fucking economy.
I always thought Pluto Nash and this were the same movie
>black dudes in capes
>saw them both in blockbuster
Coming To America, though.
I legit thought we were talking about this other movie
Not all.

Killed by the curse of Hillary Clinton. Not even joking.
In one scene in the movie he attempts to pay someone using American currency that features a photo of "President" Hillary Clinton. They used this bit in the trailer. Killed the entire movie.
>Trading Places
>48 Hours
>Beverly Hill Cops
>Coming to America
all great films
All true user. Eddie had a good run in the 80s
Wait we weren't? What the fuck I remember Bill Cosby starring in this movie when I watched it as a kid
Got any proof, OP?
This is the last movie I enjoyed of these two.
The moon is a prison colony.
kek
I really wish I could see the accounting on movies like this, because even minus the stars' salaries I can't began to fathom where the money went. I mean, there isn't a single scene in this whole movie that looks like money was spent on it.
Trading Places is such a comfy view of America during the Reagan Era of prosperity
This movie is weird, also the ending of the trailer, :(
Article literally says it was intentional.
>Grillo was uninterested in releasing the film domestically until it underwent foreign distribution
What an idiot
and they put pictures of the inmates on the money?
