What movie are you genuinely bummed out about that came and went with little to no attention?

A recent example for me is The Last Duel. It was going to be a hard sell right out of the gate because it’s 2 and a half hour period piece that deals with sexual assault that was released during the height of covid. It had all the factors to make a bigger splash: directed by Ridley Scott starring Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Adam Driver and Jodie Comer yet it only made 30 million and is considered a massive box office bomb. I wanted it to succeed because medieval movies are probably my favorite genre and I want more medieval movies with massive budgets because it just looks nice on screen. This bomb hurts because it may hinder other medieval time period movies from being made.
