But the rest of the movies rock! What's wrong with Americans? Seriously, I'm going to have a film-festival featuring all of these wonderfully weird movies. Maybe make it a traveling feature, moving from college campus to college campus. Call it, "Mr. McQuark's Matinee of Monstrous Movie Misadventures." (Copyright, 2009)
Make a million bucks.
Guaranteed.
Post-Script: After including the Wikipedia links to each of these films, several things have come to my attention:
Many of these films, especially Bottle Rocket, The Iron Giant, and Zodiac were critically acclaimed, yet still failed at the box office. This, of course, leads us into the age old question of what taste is, and who gets to determine that definition.
Both Mars Attacks! and Zodiac actually made a profit, but that is only after calculating in their foreign revenue.
Joss Whedon was one of the writers for Titan A.E.
Both Robin Williams and Ed Norton are in two of these movies. Tim Burton directed two of these movies.
