the first one about them being funny crackheads wasn't a classic compared to Half baked.

They were neither big budget (clearly) nor disasters (popular enough for a franchise) so not really covered by this thread.

As for the topic at hand, would The Abyss or Total Recall count as big budgeted disasters?I seem to recall a lot of $ was put into them, but I don't know if they can truly be classified as "disasters".

they're known as classics, so no they arent disasters.

How much did abyss and total recal cost,just because they made money doesn't mean they did good.

Doesn't it? I think you will find that if a movie MAKES money then it has done just fine...

If a movie 'makes' money it has made profit.
