SUCKED ASS are the only words I could come up with for a movie review of that piece of shit.

I didn't say I didn't like it, just that it is a stinker of a movie.

I've watched Showgirls HUNDREDS of times. Thanks for the link SykkBoy2! -- it is going on my wishlist.

Town & Country
With a negative cost of $85 million (that's the cost of the actual film before the studio starts shelling out for prints and advertising) and only $6.7 million taken after a month at the cinemas, T&C is reported to be, officially, the biggest flop of all time (with only 8% of its total cost recouped).

But also here are some other major Flops:
Shanghai Surprise (1985)
Showgirls (1995)
Hudson Hawk (1991)
The Postman (1997)

Here is a tibit of odd info:
What have Gone With The Wind, The Wizard Of Oz and Citizen Kane got in common? They're all box office flops - or at least were when they came out. The Wizard Of Oz, one of the most treasured films in cinema history, didn't actually make money until 20 years after its release. Gone With The Wind, at the time the most expensive movie ever produced, couldn't even come close to recouping its production costs at its first run in the cinemas. Two re-releases in the 40s and 50s saw the civil war classic limp towards the black, but it took television in the late 50s to see MGM into the money.

Warm regards,
--=Chipmunk=--
