It’s a shame Treasure Planet didn’t pan out in the Box Office due to Harry Potter. Treasure Planet is a classic staple of my childhood

Words can’t describe how underrated Treasure Planet and The Black Cauldron are.

Fun fact: One of the funniest things about The Black Cauldron is that it came out in theatres in 1985, but it was such a commercial failure that Disney didn't even release on VHS until 1997.

Here are some reasons why Disney's new movies flop: Bad marketing Releasing movies on streaming rather than theaters Remaking their classic movies Change the characters Covid

Treasure Planet and The Black Cauldron may have been financial flops when the movies came out, but they've since become cult classics.

John Carter isn't a bad movie at all for me

You know what the saddest thing is, Disney did actually had high hops for more Treasure Planet projects with a TV series and a sequel were Jim Hawkins has love interest named Kate, teaming up with Long John Silver to stop Ironbeard, who is the main antagonist of the sequel, and he was going to be voiced by Willem Dafoe. Unfortunately, when they saw the first movie's failure at the box office, those plans were ultimately left buried.

I am surprised that The Marvels didn't make it to this list with the lowest box-office performance in the whole MCU

I love mo-cap, but Mars Needs Moms is a prime example of how NOT to do it.

You know your list is off to a good start when the very first thing is a $100 million loss.

So 11 films on a top 20 flops list were made in the last 10 years from a 90 years cinematography history. Disney is in a bad trend, needs to woke up.

I feel bad for Dial of Destiny, Treasure Planet, Tomorrow Land, Turning Red, The Lone Ranger, and John Carter. I enjoyed them alot.

2013: Disney loses money on movies based on niche things (The Lone Ranger) 2023: Disney loses money on big famous IPs bought long time ago (MCU and Indiana Jones)

Around the world in 80 days deserves better

Mars Needs Moms was pretty much the beginning of Robert Zemekis’ downfall but the Pinocchio remake contributed to tarnishing his reputation even more

The Marvels? Live-Action Little Mermaid? Wish? The Eternals? Ant man 3? Solo a Star Wars Story? May want to do a follow up video!

14:44 If you ask Me, The 2023 Haunted Mansion could also be a sequel to the 2003 Haunted Mansion.

Turning Red would have done better if Disney released the movie in theaters this same year instead of two years later. Thanks a lot, Disney + !

The Black Cauldron, Treasure Planet and Turning Red may have bombed but i still watch them till this day. 😃

555: You ignored the fact that Ming-Na Wen made a cameo in 2020’s Mulan

No. 14, honestly I'm surprised that Disney are *STILL* making live-action remakes of their original animated classics anymore especially after this here

Treasure Planet and The Black Cauldron are both AMAZING. Shame that they’re considered flops

I still say there's something fishy about the John Carter movie. It's being said that Disney spent a bunch of money on advertising but I remember thinking back in the day "they didn't advertise this movie very well." I think Disney purposefully bombed it for some reason.

2023 was Disney’s box office disaster. 6 of the 9 major features failed to make profit due to franchise fatigue, identity politics and higher ticket prices.

What was Disney thinking when they released 2023 Haunted Mansion in July, instead of October? You know Halloween season, the month people want to watch scary or thrilling movies.

Pretty impressive how many of those flops have been within the past 5 years. Disney really has lost their mojo.

2004s "Around the World in 80 Days" is the prime example of a movie that underestimates people's intelligence with a mean-spirited story caused by lazy writing

What also hurt Treasure Planet was Titan A.E. (2000) and Atlantis (2001) coming before it. The trailer made people feel like they already watched it twice.

A wrinkle in time pissed me off, they murdered the source material

Treasure Planet bombed because of the when it was released in the year. The fact of the matter is that it would have done a hell of a lot better in the box office if it had been released in the summer.

I am going to tell my kids that Buzz Lightyear of star command is Lightyear

It’s not just the movie itself being underrated or a bomb but it’s the princess. Eilonwy is considered as Disney’s Forgotten Princess since she’s in between The Silver Age and The Disney Renaissance

Disney ruined Artemis Fowl... I will never forgive them lol

Kid Danger: *wearing his big trucker pup outfit* not to mention that the live action Mulan DOESN'T have ANY songs! *slaps his face with his hoof* dishonor on the live action Mulan move!

Regarding Mulan, you “forgot” about the controversy surrounding the abuse, torture, enslavement, and organ harvesting of the Uyghurs by the Chinese…

Isn't amazing that Disney has ownership of some of the most beloved IP's in entertainment, and has endless amounts of money and they still manage to ruin most things they touch these days.

I don't care what critics say, Alamo is a real Gem - great movie from A to Z, excellent effort with awesome actors and tremendous battle scenes

To be honest, I didn’t know these movies were bombs in the box office. All I know is I love Disney and I love the fun and action and magic. What can I say? Nothing ruins my childhood

I love Turning Red. Gave myself the theater treatment at home; popcorn, lemonade and M&M’s

I’ve seen John Carter 10 times and have enjoyed it every single time

I think live action movies or a mini series about the Prydian series would do better than a cartoon. Just stay closer to the story, and not a huge budget would make it good and sucessful.

Wish was a box office bomb

I actually enjoyed all the movies except for Newies, A Wrinkle in Time, The New Mutants, Around the World in 80 days, Jungle Cruise, The Alamo, The 13th Warrior, and The Black Cauldron

Huh. Where's Wish. I hear it flopped so hard and its competition did so well, it gave Grace Randolph an existential crisis.

I will never forgive Katzenberg for sabotaging "The Rescuers Down Under." He was gunning for it before it even hit it theaters.

*sees the title* Wonder how many of these are from the last decade or so? POST VIEW EDIT: Wow, not surprised to see many of these movies here. I am surprised to see nothing of Disney Star Wars/Marvel on this list though.

Some of them are Underrated

What about the good dinosaur? Consider the movie became the first box office bomb before lightyear

Around the world in 80 days was dope, Jackie Chan is GOAT

I love Jungle Cruise. My dad loved the ride at Disneyland and I enjoyed the movie

Underrated or not, I enjoyed 2023’s The Haunted Mansion

13th warrior was 🔥 and still is watchable

Treasure planet is a masterpiece, I don't care what anyone says. The fact that it wasn't a box office success is that it was released the same year as Star Wars: Attack of the clones, Harry Potter the chamber of secrets and also the first Spiderman movie.

Ironically, I completely forgot about The Alamo

Wish should also be on the list!

Ironic for The Black Cauldron being Number 5. Released in 1985 and it’s Number 5

This shows how complacency, studio meddling, and checking boxes backfires in the long run

The Black Cauldron was so well made and beautiful. It amazed and terrified me as a kid

I didn’t see Mars Needs Moms in theaters but instead on DVD from RedBox. Didn’t get me into it.

One of my favorite Live-Action Disney movies of all time is Newsies. I first saw it as a Broadway Show when I was a kid and when I found out it was a movie, watched it. I LOVED IT! I get why it failed at the time but I have always loved it and always enjoy re-watching it. Also as a kid I loved the Black Cauldron and it was one of the most watched for me growing up. My mom bought it when it came out on VHS in 1997.

The newest Haunted Mansion movie was actually very good. I also liked Newsies, John Carter and I remember liking the 13th Warrior, but it was quite some time ago that I saw it.

The video mentions "cultural representation" a few times. That alone explains some of the flops.

I like Treasure Planet. It's so underrated in my opinion.

Despite box Office bombs, is there anyone who like these movies, because i do especially treasure planet.

I work in a movie theater. Strange World was put out to die. From my perspective (and not representing any company I may or may not work for or have been employed by) Disney had ZERO faith in that movie. Once backlash started happening in the months before release they pulled the drag chute. The opening weekend came and there was no noticable bump in ticket sales for the location I was working at. No one cared about it. Even families coming in looking for something to watch didn't realize it was out and only bought tickets if they decided nothing else was worth it. Strange World probably would have fared better as a "straight to VHS" movie. For Seeing Red, that's a hard one to pin down. Theatrical releases survive on having RELATIVELY broad appeal. Red has a pretty specific audience: young asian girls within the first two generations of immigration to the US. Yes, other people can enjoy it, but the story is written from the perspective of an asian girl in a more traditional immigrant family which is educational, but not something that many outside of that demographic group can identify with. I'm not going to say it shouldn't have been made, but at the same time I'm not surprised it didn't do better. Even if it had better luck with its original theatrical release (no pandemic) I don't think it would have made much more. Lone Ranger was SUCH a disappointment. I wish they made better choices with the script, casting, and direction. I remember watching the black and white Lone Ranger at my grandparents house when I was a little kid and I loved it. I had such high hopes for the movie, but it was...just...awful. I even felt excitement when they started playing the William Tell Overture at the big fight scene, but I was still let down. Lone Ranger is about a man who's family is killed and he gets "revenge" by being a law man and bringing people to justice and refusing to shoot to kill. His whole thing about using silver bullets was that the silver won't cause a gunshot wound to fester with disease or lead poisoning (questionable science, but I could suspend disbelief). I was also hoping for a better treatment of Tanto, but that was...oof. That was a special kind of poor taste. I hope someone does a new Lone Ranger and tries to capture the pure hearted spirit of the original and not the schlock of the reboot.

Had Gigantic been a thing with Disney, I think it would have been gigantic(no pun intended)at the box office. Having said that, I think Disney’s best days are well behind them.

To this day, I swear Mars Needs Moms was an intentional box office bomb. Disney wanted to close ImageMovers Digital but needed a reason. So what did Disney do? They released a $150 million film during the dead period (January-March). Had Disney released Mars Needs Moms in summer or Thanksgiving, the film would have performed better.

I saw the Lone Ranger in a movie theater, and I remember people were laughing at it because it was so bad it was funny.

Treasure planet is my favorite Disney movie and they were ahead of their time Strange World was a great movie and the protagonist’s preference had NOTHING to do with the plot and was lightly referenced. Well written movie that had elements of a family drama

Treasure Planet was that movie. So underrated, one of Disney's best

Strange World is Disney’s 61st animated movie and it’s the first Disney movie I saw by myself. I know it’s not the best but it’s a fun ride

Lots of these are recent which isn’t a surprise at all. Nowadays, Disney just craps out shit because they think audiences will just flock to the Disney name.

Turning Red was kind off a insult to furries but were blunt as they look and saw it as a subliminal note

Fart blossoms in time was also dropped by Disney.3 dogs at the disco was Disney. Granny got a shotgun got banned in Yugoslavia. Astronaut without a helmet. Again banned. Mickey takes a vacation in Detroit- banned. The 15th warrior was also arrested development. Lone Ranger 2 is going to be the next best thing ever. Blackout 2 instead of black cauldron sequel.. haunted mansion three is already in the works starring Mel Gibson and Angelina Jolie. Star Wars episode 10 is called “episode 10- the revenge of fans”. Indiana Jones is coming back for another one called “” recovery of my money “. Jaws 8 is coming out soon. It’s called “jaws if I still have teeth “.

I knew Lightyear was a bomb but turning red and treasure planet didn't deserve to be in fact if I could go back in time one of the top 3 things I'd do is make treasure planet a box office hit

I actually love Around The World In 80 Days. It's funny and full of heart. ❤

Turning Red doesn’t necessarily count because it did make its money back from Disney plus since it was the 2nd most streamed movie of 2022. It’s a merchandise queen too! For Mulan (2020) and Jungle Cruise, their releases were extremely complicated

I must be part of The Black Cauldron's cult following. I'm glad I made plenty of fan art last year.

What's the difference between Texans & Disney? Texans say, "Remember The Alamo!" And Disney says, "...well..."

Treasure Planet has such a good following behind it nowadays that with all the live action remakes, they're wanting Disney to remake it into one. It deserves much more praise than it got back then

Turning Red didn't get a cinema release here in Britain. Only got to it on dvd. I liked it. But the former would have been a factor in worldwide takings. Lightyear did come to cinemas. I saw it there. At one point during I heard a child's voice near the back pipe up 'that isn't funny.' Which speaks volumes.

Really sad with Haunted Mansion, I personally really enjoyed it. It was exactly what I was looking for at the time, a spooky fun time with a few genuine surprises (including an incredible part from Jared Leto!)

Top 20 Times Disney went TOO FAR.

No 8️⃣ Honestly, I still think this has to be one of my favorite animated Pixar movies of all time here ❤️🐼

Wonder why these aren't on the list: .West Side Story (2021) .Muppets Most Wanted (2014) .Wish (2023) .The Haunted Mansion (2003) .Brother Bear (2003)

_Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny_ looks tame compared to _John Carter._

treasure planet is my favority Disney movie. Seeing it on this list makes me sad

John Carter was a GREAT movie and I will die on this hill. Even my dad liked it lol

My highschool journalism class watched Newsies. Pretty good musical.

I honestly didn't get to see lightyear in theaters, but seeing how bad the changes they made for the lore of the toy Story movies, i kinda avoid it for audience's mixed reactions

I don’t get how they say John Carter’s story had no originality when the books were the blue print to Dune, Superman, Flash Gordon, and Star Wars that came after it but ok… I guess 😅 either way it was a good movie adaption of the book. It was just released at the wrong time and promoted badly.

I think even if Lightyear didn’t have the controversy , it still would’ve bombed, since it was the first Pixar movie to be released in theaters since the Pandemic and people have gotten used to Pixar movies going to straight to streaming.

My experience with these films: John Carter- I like this film! I like how they tried to adapt a pulp novel that had a lot of influence. It wasn’t perfect but it was fun. It’s a shame to me how bad it flopped. ) mars Needs Moms, Country Bear Jamboree - I was too old for them and never saw them Jungle Cruise, Tomorrowland - JC was actually pretty fun to me, tho I had to do some online ride videos to understand it. I hadn’t been on the real ride in person. Tomorrowland, I had never been to WDW at that time. It was ok but convoluted and a clear attempt at advertising the place. Treasure Planet - it was a good film! But I never saw it in theaters.

Just because a movie flops doesn't make it an absolute failure. Treasure Planet and Turning Red are proof of that

Onward didn’t make the cut. It prematurely became a box office disappointment due to the beginning of the covid 19 pandemic

Heres something I heard. I heard that for the Mulan remake they wanted to stick mostly closer to the original Legned of Mulan.

I’m Still Here. -Song from Treasure Planet and I Love It!!!!!

Indiana Jones 5 is still a good movie to watch. The only blame is too much $$$ in the over priced budget.

Despite the title in this video, a lot of people in the comments here will disagree
