  • Sometimes, life just isn't fair - especially when great movies don't get the attention they deserve while they're in theaters. From animated adventures to cryptic head-scratchers, these films from the 2000s are worth checking out even though they flopped.

    I don't believe Kate Hudson or Phillip Seymore Hoffman was that popular when Almost famous dropped. They weren't huge stars then. It's probably why the movie bombed. Nobody really knew who that guy was either. He was an unknown. I still don't know his name and don't remember seeing him in another movie after that.

    "A Christmas Carol" is way too actiony to try to justify the 3-D. Moments that should work as drama are instead turned into chase scenes. My family watched it for the first time this year and it was simply a headache and way too over the top. And once again: the uncanny valley still hurts it like every time Zemeckis tries this, even if it's far better than the near-unwatchable Polar Express.

  • @YouLousyKids

    Idiocracy's best part is its opening that explains why the dumb people reproduce like rabbits and the smart people are struggling to make maybe one child every two generations. Unfortunately, the movie has the problem of most dystopias (like Wall*E) where the moment you try to figure out how it even works it falls apart. The people appear too stupid to even make a car or run a store. The plot is very weak and peters out. (And honestly, if I have to hear how the pro wrestler being president is predicting Trump one more time... ugh.) Idiocracy is a movie I want to like, but I totally get its failure. Extract is bad, too, FWIW, whereas Office Space holds up as a genius work whose failure was totally due to marketing. Judge's scripts need more doctoring to get there; you really can't blame them all on bad timing or marketing. And I say that as a fan of his successful works.

    Idiocracy is one of my favorite comedies it literally predicted the future of America. Almost famous, Donnie darko and mullholand drive are in my top 10. Osmosis jones is amazing bill Murray is so good, treasure planet was great I have no idea why it gets so much hate. The version of Peter Pan with Jeremy sumpter is the best version. Anything by Wes Anderson is a fave, The Happening is supposed to be campy and silly no one understands it, it’s actually perfectly done much better than lady in the water. Children of men was great too. The Jim Carey Christmas carol isn’t my favorite (the muppets) but it’s definitely worth watching every Christmas. Critics and most viewers ALWAYS get it wrong. Think for yourself and you’ll find a ton of movies that are incredible that everyone else dislikes
