From the OP list, the only one I have seen is Cutthroat Island - it's a fun movie, shouldn't just be judged on takings alone.

Yeah, Cutthroat Island isnīt bad at all. I also liked The 13th Warrior and Heaven's Gate is almost a classic.

Whatever the reason of their box office flop, right now they are consider cult classics. People were stupid back then.
