Default Re: Nominations for WORST BIG BUDGET Moive of All-Time

There are two numbers here to consider
1) (box office gross)/(cost of movie)
2) (enjoyment)/(anticipation level)
Throw in the constraint that it has to be ~80 million in current dollars to be a big budget movie.

For number 1 it is hard to beat Cutthroat Island (10 million gross/92 million to make). For number 2, it is a toss up between highlander 2, the matrix 2 and the phantom menace. Anyone that high expectations for ATOC was in denial.

There probably should also be a category for films that ended actors/directors/studios careers.
