There, see? "Land of the Lost" beat out "Gigli" on the list!
Can we change the jokes now, PLEASE??
(Particularly as Will Ferrell more richly deserved it.)

At least it's refreshing to not see "Speed Racer" up there, as that one just got an unlucky break.
But it is nice to see "The Invasion" finally take its place among the pantheon, as the movie that singlehandedly killed off one of the most annoying horror trends of the decade for good and all.

Transformers 2's cost is $200 million and it grossed $833 million worldwide. Throw in another $150 million in DVD/b-ray sales and you got almost $1 billion.

I had no idea Pluto Nash cost $100 million to make and only took in 4.4 Domestic. Nor did I know five of Eddie Murphy's recent films lost more than $250 million
I've only seen one of those movies, The Spirit.

Obviously you can't put a price tag on stupidity....

It's funny that after talking about Nicole Kidman they say the following where flops films like The Golden Compass ($372 million box office) and Australia ($211 million box office), and also fail to mention her biggest film occured later then moulin rouge etc (happy feet). Plus the decade isn't near over.

They didn't say Golden Compass or Australia flopped, they said "But after 2002, her career went cold in the U.S. ("Stepford Wives," "Bewitched," "Australia" and "The Golden Compass")." While Golden Compass and Australia did decent worldwide, both were flops at the US box office. Australia earned $49.5 million in the US, and Golden Compass earned just over $70 million. In addition, people rarely count animated features when talking about a person's biggest movie, especially a movie like Happy Feet that had numerous famous people voicing character. Kids are going to see these movies regardless, and aren't going to hear Nicole Kidman or any other famous person's voice.
