Blade Runner and John Carpenter's The Thing both received mixed to negative reviews upon their initial releases.

I wouldn't say that people like the Star Wars prequels now.
Many people just think the prequel trilogy is better than the new trilogy and that is being confused with people liking them. What makes the new trilogy more frustrating to people is that it started off so well with The Force Awakens and then went down the drain immediately after.

Heaven's Gate has a large following now that seem to mostly stem from people who can watch the movie out of context with the negative stigma that originally came with it.

Alien 3 to an extent.

That is entirely because of the director's cut though. Most people I have talked to still think the theatrical cut is garbage. I think some of these are bad examples. People didn't re-evaluate some of these movies, they just watched the better version of them and like that version. People didn't re-evaluate the theatrical version of Kingdom of Heaven and now consider it a masterpiece. They watched the extended edition that fixed all the problems that the original version suffers from. That is something entirely different.

Rocky IV? It wasn’t well received from critics back then but it has a strong fanbase now.

Rocky IV? It wasn’t well received from critics back then but it has a strong fanbase now. That movie has always been well liked by the public as far as I'm aware. At least in a guilty pleasure type way. I could be wrong, but I feel that Rocky V is really the only Rocky movie that was and is still hated.

I guess I was thinking about the fact that the love for it grew bigger and more vocal as time went by. Not necessarily that it didn’t have any love from the start. |

Not necessarily that it didn’t have any love from the start. Sure, that might be true. I just have this thing where the OP is asking for hated movies and Rocky IV at worst is considered mediocre and at best a guilty pleasure. I think many people have always been fond of it as a bit of '80s cheese. Take out Dolph Lundgren's character though and how many people would like it at all? Not many probably. As far back as I can remember he has always been considered an iconic villain. I am probably just being too nitpicky, but I would rather the question be "disliked movies" not hated movies.

Showgirls is one of the only examples of a hated movie that has been re-evaluated over the years and has many defenders now that aren't basing the re-evaluation on a director's cut.

Terminator Genisys? That movie hasn't even been out long enough to be re-evaluated.

What makes the new trilogy more frustrating to people is that it started off so well with The Force Awakens and then went down the drain immediately after. The prequels have definitely received a newfound appreciation in the past four or so years. Also, to the OP, Spaceballs.

You are right, but only because of the new trilogy imo. The timing for this newfound appreciation raises red flags. The people who have come out to defend them often seem like people who have always liked them. These people of course are going to come out in droves when a new worse trilogy comes out. Also, most people seem to just not hate them as much as they use to. I don't often see people say they now like them.

That doesn't mean that people liked it. Not surprising that the follow up to Rocky III would make a bunch of money. There are many disliked movies that made a bunch of money at the box office. Transformers 4 made more than a billion dollars.
