44 Great Movies That Flopped at the Box Office: 'Furiosa,' 'Better Man' and More (Variety)

Whether U.S. audiences just aren't familiar with British pop star Robbie Williams or moviegoers don't want to see a musical headlined by a CGI chimp, Paramount's "Better Man" become a historic box office flop with just $1.9 million grossed in its nationwide debut. That's one of the worst openings ever for a studio movie. And it only gets worse for "Better Man" considering the movie's budget was a lofty $110 million. The movie is a flop, yes, but it's also a dazzling must-see. "Better Man" now joins a long list of Hollywood misfires that did not deserve such a disappointing box office fate.
No wonder Martin Scorsese went viral several years ago for railing against the industry's obsession with box office numbers, particularly Hollywood's tendency to judge films based on the strength of their opening weekend grosses.
