I'd look at movies where critics and audience want different things from the movie - especially movies made outside the Hollywood system RogerMore Aug 15, 13:54

Wasn't "The Iron Giant" really well-received, but a poor BO result? {nm} second gary Aug 15, 19:14

Large %'s to be expected on films with narrow target market (Hillary, Rad, anything Tyler Perry). What's the largest gross with a 50%+ dif? {nm} PhoneHome Aug 15, 14:59
