These fantasy movies have tons of potential.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The fantasy genre is full of smash hits and popular franchises, but these 10 failed fantasy movies deserve a modern reboot even though they bombed the first time. Due to their high budgets and hefty production times, fantasy movies often require a pretty massive box office in order to succeed. Because of this, there is an unusual number of fantasies that have bombed throughout the years.
9 Mortal Engines The 2018 film Mortal Engines was an odd one, as it was a huge $100 million project that had almost no buzz. Based on the popular book series of the same name, Mortal Engines takes place in a world in which all of Earth's major cities reside on the backs of giant titans. Although the film did fail, making only $83.7 million at the box office, its unique concept could easily lend itself to a great movie.
7 Jack The Giant Slayer 2013's Jack the Giant Slayer was an epic take on the classic fairy tale, with the big-budget fantasy movie attempting to make a box office hit out of the iconic beanstalk climber. The film made $197 million, which for most movies isn't bad at all. However, Jack the Giant Slayer cost around $200 million, meaning that it didn't even turn a profit. Jack the Giant Slayer wasn't a bad movie, and the world of the giants is a fun one to explore.
4 The Kid Who Would Be King The Kid Who Would Be King is a 2019 film that flopped at the box office, despite it being a critical success. The film made only $32.1 million on a budget of $50 million, but it could have done a lot better. The Kid Who Would Be King would work perfectly as a series on a family-oriented streaming service like Dinsey+, with it being full of all kinds of story potential.
