I think you will see lots of modern movies on BO loser lists because of $100 million plus budgets becoming more of a norm. So those losses are verifiably bigger in the all time list.
FWIW Gone With the Wind is still in the 100 flops of all time.
I could do some digging by decade.

Well the problem is he didn't actually contribute anything. He remade ANH to be a palette cleanser and just left a bunch of vague threads with no direction. Rian filled it in and people got upset with the way they did it and JJ had to make a generic corporately sanitized piece of garbage that tried to please everyone and it broke the film. It retroactively makes TFA bad because none of the potential of it mattered.
Umm. It's the REAL highest grossing movie of all time without 3-d prices and inflation prices.FWIW Gone With the Wind is still in the 100 flops of all time.

The fact that 1990's THE BONFIRE OF THE VANITIES was a flop took everyone by surprise. It was based on a bestseller by Tom Wolfe; it starred Tom Hanks, Melanie Griffith and Bruce Willis when all of their film careers were on fire; it was directed by Brian frickin' De Palma, who had had a string of commercial and critical successes. It seemed impossible that such a movie could fail. And yet it did. That was such a shock at the time--industry insiders were picking up their jaws from the floor for years after.
Biggest Hollywood Failure was Amber Heard and Johnny Depp's marriage.
Would that JEM movie be considered a failure as they pulled it from theaters after like a week or so...because it was doing so poorly...
Too early to call , but WW1984 seems to be getting the unwanted 'f' word association.I've seen it and I wholeheartedly agree to me personally it was a huge disappointment compared to the predecessor
Biggest bomb of all time is Taylor Kitsch and his 2012 films. He was the star of John Carter, Battleship and Savages. All commercial and critical bombs though Savages was low budget so it didn't lose as much money as the other two. How many actors can say they were the star of two films that lost around $200 million each within a 3 month span.
I wonder how John Carter would have done without Disney being behind it, as Disney seems a tad tame for it given some of the costumes in the comics and such...
