I never heard about this movie before I have seen it on the TV. It was uninspired, boring, flat, had no big idea. Everything at least mildly interesting there is taken from mad max, moby dick, terminator and several cheap old comedies. The premise is nonsense (oceans simply can not go so high). It is a OK C-movie.

It was considering a "flop" because of how little it initially made at the box office in comparison to it's extremely high production budget. @ Petr. The oceans absolutely could go that high if all or most of the ice at the 2 poles melted. In fact the oceans have been much higher than they are now (see Pangea).

Steve - Pangea is completely different thing, if we are talking about continental drift, that has nothing to do with ice. If all the ice on earth melted, the oceans would rise less than 220 feet (cca. 65 meters). So no Netherlands or Florida, but most of the landmass would still be untouched. for a long time (for example late Cretaceus), there was no or almost no ice on earth.

Right? It fed me a ridiculous premise and then managed to get me to suspend my disbelief. It had action, adventure, drama, and comedy. They even managed to cast Costner in a role where his sometimes wooden acting actually suited the character. Not only did I watch it enough to damage the VHS tape it was on I also watched the ABC extended cut when it was on TV and spent years trying to (eventually succeeding) hunt down a copy of that extended cut to watch again. It's one of my list of must watch films for a post-apocalyptic movie marathon alongside A Boy and His Dog, and Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.

I think it has more to do with Kevin Costner and not the movie itself. He became blacklisted when he did the movie JFK. Like it or not, but the media is owned by corporate interests that also own most of Congress, and they can't risk a star like Kevin Costner was back in the day to be involved with movies like JFK that start to get the masses to question official stories. The elite don't want smart people, they want people easily manipulated and controlled, and the easiest way to do that is through entertainment.

The biggest reason Waterworld was a "disaster" is because the theatrical release excluded EVERY SINGLE SCENE THAT GAVE THE CHARACTERS DEPTH. I saw the director's cut on ABC TV the one night it was aired, in the mid-90's, and I was SO disappointed when I bought the VHS tape a few weeks later and all of my favorite scenes were missing. It took the studio 14 GODDAMN YEARS to release a DVD of the director's cut.

The sinking of the atoll set did not happen. The object that sank was the slaver’s tower, a minor floating piece that appears briefly in the scene where the Mariner uses the reverse periscope to discover Smokers hiding underwater. One of the links that held two of the eight floating platforms that made up the atoll was damaged during a storm, but it did not take on water and did not sink. These two stories got mashed together and reported in the news falsely as the atoll sinking. I was the lead engineer for the atoll floating platforms and know this first hand.

@@PSYCKYO Well the topic was why the movie failed overall. You know real good old Disney's classics where great hits but imagine if they made a movie like Cinderella but 18+ with nudity, swearing, drug use and ultra gore scenes. Many would have enjoyed it but it would probably have been a commercial failure. Even then, a 18+ Disney movie would probably do a lot better like Japanese animated movies. There's nothing family friendly about a post apocalyptic world. The last Mad Max is a great example of how it should be done. The third Mad Max also was a failure because they made it a bit family friendly. When you try to please everyone, you often end up pleasing no one.

Yep,when the entire environment is CGI it's hard to suspend disbelief and buy into the reality of it. It's just too inauthentic to believe, let alone become immersed in the story. Done right, it can really add to the movie, imo. But when it's overdone, it's like watching a computer game that you can't even control. Maybe it _is_ an age thing, but cgi movies make me yearn for the bad - but real - special effects without computers.

Never even knew that Waterworld was considered a "flop" at some point. It was already a cult hit of sorts few years later The N64 game, Duke Nukem: Zero Hour from 2000 even has an entire secret level parodying the Water World's floating city, called "the wet world". Even includes the tomato shop, the balloon and the mud pits.

At the time it was well known that Costner basically did what is now known as a Tom Cruise: changing the script constantly to put more emphasis on his role. That not only made it way more expensive, it made the continuity of the movie very difficult and sometimes impossible to mantain. All the fighting behind the scenes between Costner, the directors, the scriptwriters and the studio points to this and as a result it went way, way over budget. Costner wanted everything to be perfect for what was to be his masterpiece, and perfection is expensive. Kevin Costner made a string of very succesfull movies and thus expectations were very high for Waterworld. Costner was at that moment considered "too big to fail" and got what for all means and purposes could be seen as a blank cheque to make this movie, because his name would ensure that it would become another blockbuster movie. With the expectations for Waterworld being so high and all the changes in the script and stages being far more expensive than calculated, Costner ran the risk that in the end the movie would become só expensive that it wouldn't make a decent profit. And that's what happened: in comparison to the costs the movie didn't make the expected profit and is thus considered a flop. Waterworld was too pretentious, too expensive, too much changed along the way and way less succesfull than previous Costner movies, costing him his "too big to fail status." As a story it doesn't make much sense and as a movie it has numerous plotholes, bad scripts and dialogues and poor characters (except Costners of course).

To be honest it IS a cult hit movie... but at the time they were expecting a huge "Titanic/ Jurassic Park" type blockbuster... so going from Blockbuster to having a cult following is considered to be a failure in the eyes of Hollywood. I am glad this movie ended up turning a profit in the end though, more risks need to be taken now a days like this, everything being done seems too safe in my opinion.

Fortunately for us old folks, HD resolution isn't important if we like the story. We grew up with 9" B&W TV's that had vertically rolling pictures. Of course, we also had great, big old elaborate movie theaters (with mezzanines and balconies, too, where the couples could hide from the world and make out!) with 100 foot screens as the norm, and it didn't cost a weeks pay to go to the theater. You could stay in the theater and re-watch it as many times as you wanted, nobody kicked you out, there was always a 'B' movie as every show was a double feature, AND we had great WB cartoons in between the movies.

No, it, ain't!! No where even close.. it's a souped up b-action, with very poor, dull acting.. And worse of all, it could have been great! Just like any other grotesquely expensive movie with shit scripts, actors, directors and producers, like the new Mad Max movie for example being one of the most poorly made, shitty movies of all time in pretty much every single way! Except for effects. Actually, it even makes water world look great in comparison. And other examples are of course pretty much any Marvel movie entirely or for the most part. So what qualifies a good, great or even fantastic movie you ask? Especially when it comes to the action genre! Well.. here are a few very obvious examples.. Terminator 1 and 2 (there isn't any more made than that btw ; ), Aliens, Alien 3 (Half the first half at least) (and also there aren't more than 3 made) Heat (thriller-action) The last action hero (yes, it's not fantastic or great, but good overall, especially the first 2/3) The Bourne trilogy, (Again, only three exists) Ronin to some extent. The unusual suspects, The first and one and only: Speed, Jurassic park, Jaws, Predator, Blade Runner (parts of it, mostly the music, scenery and environments) The duel - a thriller (Spielbergs feature film), some early Bond movies though of course quite corny for the most part. And a few more that I can't remember right now.. But there aren't many through the film history to be honest! The action genre is kind of like the comedy genre. There are just so many good timeless pics that still holds up! Oh and of course! How could I forget! "Hard Target" (Van Damme).. just kidding! hehe!

7:15 that "local stuntman" was legendary surfer Laird Hamilton, who was helping coordinate water stunts and overseeing safety. He was living on Maui and the show was being filmed off the big island. They were doing the jetski stunts and he wanted to use his own jetski, so he decided to drive his out from the island out to the set. He ran into some terrible fog, plus the current was double the speed that day. He was about 60 miles off course and low on gas by the time the fog cleared. Luckily for him he had a tracking device on which led the coast guard to him, 60 miles north of Hilo ("you're a needle in a hay stack, you're going to Alaska after that, it's pretty much over, it's open sea") and he credits his life to it. He tells the story in a very Laird way, totally matter of fact, but it's pretty terrifying.

Honestly I feel like Fury Road gives is a great run for its money, and this is coming from someone who grew up obsessing over Road Warrior as a kid. Fury is refreshing in there are zero attempts to try and make some redemptive character development plot out of the story, instead the *main character* is merely a facilitator of the action, which is really what the film is about. One thing Fury has that Road Warrior doesn't have, is an utterly outstanding sounds production, as well as music; mostly thanks to newer technology, but it still stands above all other action movies of the era.

Today i even rewatched in again (the 100th time was long time ago) with the extended cut and i can easily say it's even more impressive TODAY than it was 30 years ago with the insane amount of practical effects and stunts. Yes, the little CGI it has feels dated, but the practical effects are rivaling the biggest blockbusters in history. You can practically feel the atmosphere this movie builds. I get sun burn just by watching Kevin Costner's face drying in the wing after a dive.

I feel like the part of your conclusion where you declare “CGI is the future,” really glosses over the fact that, in spite of its problems, Waterworld does have some incredible visuals that hold up today. The same can’t be said of CGI-heavy productions made a decade later in the early 2000s. The production problems here may be storied, but ultimately they got through it. Where this movie fell apart was in the editing bay, and on the page of the script, and if those parts had worked, we’d probably be remembering Waterworld as a legendary epic film.

I think he was describing the path the industry took in that conclusion. CGI is just much safer. You don't have to deal with weather conditions, building giant props that could fall into themselves or outdoor on set catering, and people don't get lost at sea for a whole day or almost get run over by boats. xD That CG in the early 2000s loox like crap today but we learned from it and it paved the way to what we have today where so much can be completely modeled from nothing and the audience is none the wiser. From the Starwars prequals we learned how rubbish it loox making EVERYTHING in CG so now they often take mixed approaches where part of the sets are actually built so the characters actually interact with varying terrain and actions scenes can look more organic.

I freaking loved Waterworld... But, I like a lot of famously bad movies... I much prefer Judge Dredd over Dredd... I love Super Mario Brothers, and Demolition Man :D The 90s had some fun, dumb movies... Though, watching Demolition Man the other day, I realized it's not nearly as dumb as it's pretending to be... No joke, it's a film adaptation of "Brave New World". It's not even subtle about it... At one point, Wesley Snipes flat out says, "It's a Brave New World" Sandrah Bullock's character is named Huxley, after the author Alduous Huxley, and Stalone's character is frequently referred to as a "savage", referencing one of the protagonists of Brave New World. I don't know who managed to smuggle such a brilliant literary classic into the blockbuster action movie market... but bravo, bravo!
