Line 128:
* ''[[Tora! Tora! Tora!]]'' flopped in the U.S., only picking up its classic status after home video release in the following decade.
* The weirdness of ''[[Harold and Maude]]'' wasn't in sync with the early 70s, what with [[Squick|a teenage boy having a romance with an octogenarian woman]], and it failed horribly. People have since come to understand the film's finer qualities better, and its repuation has skyrocketed.
* ''[[Willy Wonka and& the Chocolate Factory]]'' found its audience through TV and home video after a disappointing theatrical run in 1971 (a time when family movies just weren't big draws)... and after Paramount's rights were transferred to Warner Bros.
* [[George Lucas]]' ''THX-1138'' remained unpopular even after the success of ''[[Star Wars]]''. Around the time the aforementioned franchise's prequels were coming out, ''1138'' gained a lot of momentum.
* Nicolas Roeg
