Film(s) You Think Could Have Done Much Better Had They Been Released Earlier/Later
Is there a movie you think would have done much better financially and/or critically had it been released at some other point in time?
I really think M Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable was released at the wrong time. Even though X-Men had just come out recently and was a huge box office attraction, superhero movies still had a lot to prove, and people especially weren’t ready to accept or even understand why a superhero film was so slow paced and devoid of action scenes. I think movie-goers of today could much better appreciate how unbelievably unique and original it is.

I think most of shamalangadingdongs films have been released at the wrong time not just unbreakable, they would have been better saved for 40 odd years till i was dead and didn't have to know of their existence.
I prefer to watch movies that defy some point in time, let's say for example
and
The messages these films have are still as relevent now if not more so, than they were when they were made.
Whereas
Is just proof that even with such a stellar cast it's a pile of dogshit from such a worthless cunt.

I think Scott Pilgrim wouldve done at least a little better if it wasn't released at a time where people getting sick of Michael Cera.

I think a large part of the Pilgrim problem is the fact that the kind of folks that would really get off on the geekness and references would largely be the kind of folks who would have downloaded it rather than wait for a general release and deal with shitty distribution... or maybe not...

I think the 2008 hulk movie would have done pretty well back in 2003, when the ang lee hulk was released.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid Dog Days would have made more than $14,623,599 if the movie came out on June 18, 2012 because in that movie the characters got out of school for summer vacation.

Eh. It wasn't a previous franchise and it didn't have a big animation name to help bring crowds in. And almost all films that seem to be marketed solely for toddlers are completely alienating. No marketing campaign will mask that.
It's only hope is that the stoners will like it enough for it to become a midnight movie cult classic.

Dredd (2012) could have done well if it replaced the original Stallone one (1995), or maybe even if the Stallone one didn't exist. Maybe then it could have been a successful franchise.

If Talk Radio came out at this exact moment, it would grab everyone by the balls with a destructive grip. That movie makes everyone its bitch, especially with the end monologue. Network kinda falls under this category too.
