It's been an interesting summer blockbuster season, and while we all now begin turning our attention towards Fall and Winter releases like Spectre and Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which releases crashed and burned over the past few months? Thanks to The Hollywood Reporter, we have the summer's five biggest flops, and Fantastic Four currently places as the second biggest failure behind only Tomorrowland. It's a little disappointing to see The Man From U.N.C.L.E. on here as it's by far the best of the bunch, but you have to believe that Fox are seriously reconsidering moving ahead with Fantastic Four 2 after losing a whopping $100 million on the first instalment. Even bringing someone like Bryan Singer in to direct wouldn't make a follow-up any less of a risk...
