With summer officially coming to a close it is time to see which films performed the worst at the box office this season. The Hollywood Reporter has compiled a list of the five biggest bombs of the summer and Josh Trank's Fantastic Four and Brad Bird's Tomorrowland are the worst of the worst.

Tomorrowland had a production budget of $190M and grossed $208.4M at the worldwide box office. THR expects Disney to take a loss of $120M to $150M on the film.

20th Century Fox is expected to take a $80M-$100M hit on Fantastic Four. It cost the studio $125M to produce and only grossed $146.7M at the global box office. Now Fox has to figure out what to do with the property. A sequel was scheduled to be released on June 9, 2017, but based on the poor box office performance of Trank's film a sequel seems unlikely.

Pixels, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Aloha round out the top five. The Adam Sandler film cost $88M to produce and earned at worldwide total of $186M. That'll leave Sony with a loss of $75M. Guy Ritchie's feature film remake of the 1960's television series will cost Warner Bros. $80M. The studio spent $75M to produce it, but it only grossed $72M globally. Lastly, Cameron Crowe's Hawaii-based film, starring Bradley Cooper and Emma Stone, gave Sony/Fox a $65M black eye. It grossed $26.2M at the worldwide box office and had a $37M budget.
