It’s honestly impressive how much money Disney lost when making the Lone Ranger. They really thought it was gonna be their next Pirates of the Caribbean.
Westerners are mostly dead in their original form. The only way they can work is if they incorporate elements of Ronin media from Japan like in Mandalorian, or just deconstruct the entire genre.
I don't mind if the Disney corporation keeps making boss office bombs...I want more of them, so Disney is no longer one of the main suppliers of the movie industry.

Fun fact about the ghostbusters 2016 set, although none of the film actresses did voice work for the game, the film's director Paul Feig does voice himself, in a cameo where he threatens to remake Back to the Future next.
@@liamwhittaker8691 Felt more like a tongue-in-cheek jab at the controversy surrounding the movie. The whole reason you have to save Paul Feig is cause he locked himself in a cupboard hiding from angry fanboys. And this is the only joke about it so it's not like the devs were constantly making fun of the movie. They were just having a little bit of fun.
I hope we get plenty more original themes. Wild West, Pirates, something cool like Rock Raiders. Love Star Wars, but when I think of Lego the more generic classic themes are what I think of first.
I remember years ago, about 2009 or so with Toy Story 3, realizing that LEGO likes to chase properties that have been successful in the past and now have a new chapter (Indiana Jones, Toy Story 3, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and so on). It's like a marketing strategy to suggest some security investing merchandise into that license. But just because it's a reliable brand, doesn't make the new installment as successful as its contemporaries.
I actually liked the lightyear and Lone Ranger sets. I only owned the train for the Lone Ranger, but it was an amazing train set. And I collected all 3 lightyear sets, they were cool for what they were, the xl 15 is both a great toy and display set and came with a nice ucs styled plaque/display stand
I completely agree! I got the lone ranger train when it released and it is still one of my favourite sets of all time, so many amazing memories of playing with that thing. The fact they included a Gettling Gun in the set though never fails to make me chuckle. Lego today would never dare
Kind of unfortunate how Speed Racer bombed so hard, especially given my nostalgia for it. I still remember how my excited my dad was when he saw they were making a Speed Racer movie, he even bought some DVDs of the old series for us to watch in order to familiarize us with the franchise. Speed Racer was also the 2nd film I ever saw in theaters, and was the thing that got me into movies in general. Heck, set 8160 was my first non-Duplo LEGO set, so I guess Speed Racer got me into LEGO as well.
I had a similar experience with my dad; he got me two volumes of the show on DVD (which I got very invested in for awhile) and took me to see the movie in theaters. I never got the sets, though.
I remember back in 2013 my mom ordered the Lone Ranger Constitution Train Chase set. I was so hyped, but it never arrived in the mail until a month later due to delays. The original owner felt so bad that they sent me the Comanche Camp for free.
i grew up watching speed racer with my dad as one of my favorite movies and this video is how i learned that it failed thought to this day it’s still one of my fav movies
I love the Lone Ranger movie. It’s one of the most underrated movies Imo. It’s not perfect but it’s great. I also got the silver mine shootout and little push train poly bag sets years after they retired, and my brother got the bank. Shootout is one of my favorite sets ever.
You've got give some credit to Lego, even though these films were bombs, they still put out some amazing sets to go alongside them (although many movies on this list are good despite being bombs.) That's just awesome, I guess sometimes studios assume that a film will be bigger than it turns out to be and go all out - only for it to fail. Life's funny sometimes.
@@just2good Yeah, I know what you mean. I find some of Lego's theme choices to be extremely odd, like the Live-Action TMNT or Angry Birds movie. Did anybody really think those were gonna be big hits in the long run? At least the regular TMNT sets were great.
Speed Racer and MR. MAGORIUM’S WONDER EMPORIUM got sets?! What??? I owned the first Prince of Persia set you showed- the lost dagger one. I loved playing with it as a kid. That dagger in particular got a lot of playtime.😊
0:43 Hey, I remember me & my brother each got one of those poly bags back when it 1st came out. We still have the 2 daggers on display but who knows where the rest of the pieces are.
@@just2good Ok, I looked it up on BrickLink & the 2nd dagger was one of the extra pieces so most likely we only had 1 subscription & that explains the 2nd one. I just noticed because recently I was looking around my room for my 3rd Power Miners rock monster & I noticed 2 of those daggers. So, I looked it up to see what sets it was in & that set made the most sense as I don’t have evidence of any of the other sets kicking around my parts bin.
Marketing budgets are normally the same as the production budget, as you need to factor in it the theatre cuts as well. So if a film has a production budget of 200 million, it'll need 400 million in the box office to break even. Which is why more and more films are flops as the age of massive theatre revenue is over but they haven't adjusted production and marketing budgets accordingly.
Funny I’ve actually seen “Mr Magnoriums Wonder Emporium”! I definitely didn’t realize it got a LEGO set! Makes sense that creator sets would be in there as most of the movie takes place in a toy store (it is nice little movie too;)
I have to admit, Prince of Persia and Lone Ranger gave us some great sets regardless how the movies performed. Raya is unfortunate due to the pandemic.
I remember an Ashens video (I can't remember which one) where he theorises that Lego are trying to make people forget that the Prince of Persia sets happened (I think his reasoning was that there was some sourcebook that mentioned a lot of themes but not Prince of Persia?) Interestingly, the only piece that it introduced that ended up being reused post-theme (that I'm aware of) was the triple-claw gauntlet (part 88811), which last appeared in the 2018 Marvel set Outrider Dropship Attack.
After avoiding it for close to a decade, I finally gave The Lone Ranger a watch recently and I actually kinda liked it. Pretty sure I'm crazy haha. The sets went SO hard and I regret missing out on them back in the day!
I really wish those cavalry builder sets were easier to get, they're practically battle packs for union soldiers and as a big civil war and wlld west nerd i really want them for MOCS and stuff
My most favorite minifigures in those sets are the red ghost from Ghostbusters, Raya with a straw hat and lastly the guy with katanas from the prince of persia!
You always come up with such clever and inspired themes for your videos. Have you thought of doing a video where you look at all the Lego sets/minifigs for the #1 BO hit of each year starting from, say, 1980 (i.e. around the period where blockbusters became a thing)? You could then look at the possibility of those hitherto unrepresented #1 films getting sets, like Three Men and a Baby and Rain Man (pretty much 0%), and Shreck 2 and E.T. (much more likely), as well as Top Gun and Terminator 2 (very unlikely, but not entirely impossible, especially if we also account for the customised/unofficial Lego market). And also look at the past and potential future of those #1 movies that already have sets (i.e. Raiders of the Lost Ark, Back to the Future, Batman and Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King). Obviously, certain #1 movies are already well represented by Lego, and continue to be so (i.e. The Empire Strikes Back/Return of the Jedi/Phantom Menace etc, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone/Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, and The Avengers/Black Panther/Endgame).
I just remembered like a core memory of having that Mr Magoriums Wonder Emporium Lego set. I distinctly remember seeing with my own eyes in my house seeing that box art as a kid. What the hell.
I think the Lightyear sets wound up on Clearance after the movie flopped and got stomped on by Top Gun: Maverick, Jurassic World: Dominion and Minions: The Rise of Gru
Justin is a very smart nerd because of how he knows the budget and box office of these movies. I didn't know Raya was a flop. I acutally liked Lightyear and WW84. Lightyear flopping was a surprise because Pixar is one of the best studios and I seen so many liking the trailers.
I miss the lone ranger sets. Movie bad or good, they were great sets. My two most favorite themes are castle and western/cowboy, and I actually never got the chance to get any of the lone ranger sets, besides one.
I’m sorry but I lovedddd Ghostbusters 2016. I’ve watched it so many times and I still crack up through the whole movie. I wasn’t into Lego back when the sets came out but the ecto 1 and 2 set was the first retired set I bought on eBay once I got into Lego again. I love it it’s a great little set. Still gotta get the dimensions one though.
2 more movies you could add to your list of movies with lego in them are The borrowers , which had a yellow brick if I recall and Esio trot which I'm pretty sure had the nindroid mechdragon from ninjago
Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium is such an underrated gem imo, I freaking love that movie, heartwarming, fun, and featuring the brilliant duo of Natalie Portman and Dustin Hoffman. Well worth a watch if you haven't seen it already.
@@just2good, no I don't, I was not a huge creator fan back then and still aren't really to this day. I didn't even know this set existed lol. No, I just watched the movie as a kid and revisted it recently, and it holds up pretty well imo. The 'don't be shy' scene alone is one of my favourite movie moments (similar premise to the Love Actually sign scene except better executed).
The Emporium movie caught me most by surprise as I actually forgot that was a movie. Absolutely knew Speed Racer, Lone Ranger, and Lightyear were going to be on this list however as movies forgot about most of the rest though I own the sets. As badly received as Lone Ranger was the sets were amazing as I actually got the Stage Coach, and Confederation train which are still built to this day. As a movie it's fine, entertaining enough, and subjectively more fun than Wild Wild West which I found an absolute travesty of film making even back in the day.
I wouldn’t really count Wizard of Oz, considering the Lego stuff came out so many years later when the movie has become such a classic and many musicals/adaptations of it have been out
@@just2good Well I don't know that for sure, but I mean Lego haven't reused them since their debut in The Lone Ranger theme in 2013, almost a decade ago, and have also since reverted back to the 90s Johnny Thunder ones for Overwatch and The Batman. My theory is that they either they prefer the less realistic gun mold or it would cost them more to produce again.
Those Prince of Persia sets went hard though ngl. Especially the Quest against Time set. I remember virtually none of the movie but I have fond memories of all the sets I had as a kid
Excellent point about the Ghostbusters: Answer the Call Ecto-1, which, as you say, has a better designed interior than the Lego Ecto-1 for the original films (which couldn't properly accommodate all four of the Ghostbusters).
I actively remember the Lone ranger solely by the existence of a crow-piece with hat-attachment, since it was used the same year for series 11 Scarecrow minifigure... The minifigures series is a great sneak-peek into the future possible pieces...
Watching this video gave me an idea for a future video of yours Justin: a top 5 list of Unpopular franchises with surprisingly good sets! (your opinion).
Interesting list! Being fairly new to Lego (2021) I missed most of these. Ironically I just recently bought two of the Loan Ranger sets. The train and stagecoach. They are both fantastic. I may get some of the others if I can find at a good price. Sadly I have not even seen this movie but will watch it now that I got the sets. By the way, John Carter was a very enjoyable movie IMHO. The marketing was terrible and it was laden with comparisons to Star Wars with a lot of folks claiming it was a rip off. If they only realized this franchise was based on books written many years before the first Star Wars movie even premiered.
You forgot Eternals. While it’s not considered a flop due to the mega power of the MCU, it technically is. And insiders say they’re not moving forward with those characters
Ehhh, maybe if this was a Top 20. There were others that almost made the 10, like Winnie the Pooh 2011 (wrote a whole segment too. Cut last minute), LEGO Ninjago, TLM2
Love the typo on the Mr. Magorium’s where the there is no apostrophe by the s which means there is more than one Magorium. (If you get the reference congratulations!!!)
I remember the hype I had for Prince of Persia, and worked my ass off for chore money so I could by a couple of the lego sets. I loved that era of Lego, regardless of the reception of the movie.
I love Raya and the last dragon, it's one of my favourite Disney movies of all time. The Lego sets are really cool and really different from the other Disney princess sets. I have the whole wave and I love them but I have to say they are super overpriced... I mean Bouns boat should have been like 35 and it's 60 in my country!
Why is Raya there? I don’t consider it a flop since it was out during Covid! So yeah, I don’t consider it a flop if it did well somewhere else like Disney+.
I wish Lego would show more love to Western themes. The Lone Ranger sucked, but the tie-in was their only attempt at making a new line of Wild West sets, and it was surprisingly solid. And that really helped with our Lego cowboy fix for the time being, despite being just a one off. I also missed when they brought back those 1960s rail pieces for their mine sets at the time, as they were better than those times they would shoehorn in those new coaster tracks as much as possible.
Not sure if you know, Justin, but it's said that the lowest possible prediction for the budget of *_Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker_* is said to be no lower than $500 million. And the film barely broke a billion, meaning that Disney lost money on that film.
@@just2good Thank Valliant Renegade for that. He does a lot of insight on the financial and business side of Hollywood along with Kamran Pasha and WDW Pro.
Surprised you didn’t add “Solo” on this lost, It had a whole line of sets including a whole Falcon, its budget was an estimate of $275-300 million and grossed $393.2 million worldwide. And considering it was a film from Star Wars and a film about one of the most Iconic Characters ever

Kind of a shame. I liked the movie, and learning how it was made was very fascinating
12 year old me thought it would be too 😅
Cool lego theme though.
It was a fun movie just wasn't what people wanted at the time
Westerners are mostly dead in their original form. The only way they can work is if they incorporate elements of Ronin media from Japan like in Mandalorian, or just deconstruct the entire genre.
The fact that I remember the Prince of Persia sets a thousand times more than the movie-
It's somehow equally ironic and fitting that Disney was involved in half of the list
Biggest hits, biggest flops
That might be mostly because they are involved in a fair share of LEGO’s licensed sets, period.
I don't mind if the Disney corporation keeps making boss office bombs...I want more of them, so Disney is no longer one of the main suppliers of the movie industry.

@@just2good, no I don't, I was not a huge creator fan back then and still aren't really to this day. I didn't even know this set existed lol.
No, I just watched the movie as a kid and revisted it recently, and it holds up pretty well imo. The 'don't be shy' scene alone is one of my favourite movie moments (similar premise to the Love Actually sign scene except better executed).
If morbius film had lego sets, that would be in the list
One of the sets of all time
lol
The Emporium movie caught me most by surprise as I actually forgot that was a movie. Absolutely knew Speed Racer, Lone Ranger, and Lightyear were going to be on this list however as movies forgot about most of the rest though I own the sets. As badly received as Lone Ranger was the sets were amazing as I actually got the Stage Coach, and Confederation train which are still built to this day. As a movie it's fine, entertaining enough, and subjectively more fun than Wild Wild West which I found an absolute travesty of film making even back in the day.
4:15 You’re missing Avengers Age of Ultron where Thor stepped on a Lego creation in Hawkeye’s house.
YAY ANOTHER LIST
Yes, I called this
Got you something!!! Text on telegram to claim your 🎁🎁!!!
I love how the ghost busters answer the call Ecto-1 is pretty much current speed champions scale
That paramore melody slaps
I wouldn’t really count Wizard of Oz, considering the Lego stuff came out so many years later when the movie has become such a classic and many musicals/adaptations of it have been out
Eh, then I’d take off Hocus Pocus too. I wanted to show how even some classic movies we love were once flops!
Love the Ain’t It Fun instrumental in the background!
Great Video! I’m surprised you didn’t include Justice League, that’s a pretty infamous flop right there (both the film and the sets)
Eh, made more profit than these! Close to making the list!
Really wish Lego didn't bin the revolver molds from The Lone Ranger.
They’re gone?
@@just2good Well I don't know that for sure, but I mean Lego haven't reused them since their debut in The Lone Ranger theme in 2013, almost a decade ago, and have also since reverted back to the 90s Johnny Thunder ones for Overwatch and The Batman. My theory is that they either they prefer the less realistic gun mold or it would cost them more to produce again.
Those Prince of Persia sets went hard though ngl. Especially the Quest against Time set. I remember virtually none of the movie but I have fond memories of all the sets I had as a kid
Excellent point about the Ghostbusters: Answer the Call Ecto-1, which, as you say, has a better designed interior than the Lego Ecto-1 for the original films (which couldn't properly accommodate all four of the Ghostbusters).
Love the idea of this top 10 video. The money that goes into these movies always fascinates me. Great video 🤟🏻🤙🏻
I actively remember the Lone ranger solely by the existence of a crow-piece with hat-attachment, since it was used the same year for series 11 Scarecrow minifigure... The minifigures series is a great sneak-peek into the future possible pieces...
Awesome video just2good
Watching this video gave me an idea for a future video of yours Justin: a top 5 list of Unpopular franchises with surprisingly good sets! (your opinion).
I don’t care what anyone says, Speed Racer is an underrated gem that gives a fresh take on the racing movie genre
Please make a sequel! I need more Lego flops!
Gonna try to do a sequel on highest grossing
@@just2good yes please do!
A very interesting video indeed Just 2 Good
Interesting list! Being fairly new to Lego (2021) I missed most of these. Ironically I just recently bought two of the Loan Ranger sets. The train and stagecoach. They are both fantastic. I may get some of the others if I can find at a good price. Sadly I have not even seen this movie but will watch it now that I got the sets. By the way, John Carter was a very enjoyable movie IMHO. The marketing was terrible and it was laden with comparisons to Star Wars with a lot of folks claiming it was a rip off. If they only realized this franchise was based on books written many years before the first Star Wars movie even premiered.
Thank you for the kind words! I saw John Carter when I was younger and less into movies and don’t remember much, I shall give it a rewatch some time.
I just realized that the universal deal is about to fold soon
Black Panther lego sets have been a huge flop! Literally 50+ percent off on all sets. Even the Bust went on huge sale pretty fast.
But the movie did well.
The sets look like garbage. Ya know its bad when those are the very few Lego sets left on clearance in stores during holiday season.
Totally agreed about The Lone Ranger:
The Lego sets >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The film
And I want all of them, great sets...
You forgot Eternals. While it’s not considered a flop due to the mega power of the MCU, it technically is. And insiders say they’re not moving forward with those characters
Ehhh, maybe if this was a Top 20. There were others that almost made the 10, like Winnie the Pooh 2011 (wrote a whole segment too. Cut last minute), LEGO Ninjago, TLM2
I love Speed Racer so much, I really wish I could get those sets now or even a remake of some with improved minifigures
They’re actually cheap!
Love the typo on the Mr. Magorium’s where the there is no apostrophe by the s which means there is more than one Magorium. (If you get the reference congratulations!!!)
I remember the hype I had for Prince of Persia, and worked my ass off for chore money so I could by a couple of the lego sets. I loved that era of Lego, regardless of the reception of the movie.
Never saw the movie but wanted the sets
Speed racers are absolutely awesome, i loved the sets
I love Raya and the last dragon, it's one of my favourite Disney movies of all time. The Lego sets are really cool and really different from the other Disney princess sets. I have the whole wave and I love them but I have to say they are super overpriced... I mean Bouns boat should have been like 35 and it's 60 in my country!
Why is Raya there? I don’t consider it a flop since it was out during Covid! So yeah, I don’t consider it a flop if it did well somewhere else like Disney+.

I wish Lego would show more love to Western themes. The Lone Ranger sucked, but the tie-in was their only attempt at making a new line of Wild West sets, and it was surprisingly solid. And that really helped with our Lego cowboy fix for the time being, despite being just a one off. I also missed when they brought back those 1960s rail pieces for their mine sets at the time, as they were better than those times they would shoehorn in those new coaster tracks as much as possible.
I've never seen the movie, but I really want the lone ranger sets. I'm not even a huge fan of the wild west but those sets are just way too good.
Not sure if you know, Justin, but it's said that the lowest possible prediction for the budget of *_Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker_* is said to be no lower than $500 million. And the film barely broke a billion, meaning that Disney lost money on that film.
That’s crazy! I didn’t know!
@@just2good Thank Valliant Renegade for that. He does a lot of insight on the financial and business side of Hollywood along with Kamran Pasha and WDW Pro.
Good video
