''Even with A-list talent plastered across the posters, these 10 films couldn’t buy an audience this summer. Eden, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Eddington, Honey Don’t, Witchboard, The Phoenician Scheme, Elio, Ballerina, M3GAN 2.0, The Life of Chuck, and Splitsville all stumbled hard—some were just disappointments, others were full-on cinematic dumpster fires (and yes, I saw them all).
The kicker? Jaws: 50th Anniversary in IMAX—three days of showings—has already outgrossed a few of them after two months in theaters. That’s not a good look when a half-century-old shark movie is still eating your lunch.''
