Just based off the end numbers...no, it didn't flop.
However it has had several re-releases which have helped its original paucity of numbers. I don't really care though - use it if you want - but ultimately it is @D Hindley 's decision.

Releasing films around the time of World War II probably doesn't help initial box office

The Room: Sanity's Edge
Classically dubbed as one of the best 'worst' films ever made, and categorized in the 'midnight cinema' genre, Tommy Wiseau's written, producing, directing, and starring debut in The Room, was released in 2003 by Wiseau Films, who have agreed to sell the theme park rights to Disney in hopes of fulfilling Tommy's theme park dreams, as Disney has a plan to include the film in Disney's Hollywood Studios in a San Francisco section of the park north of Sunset Boulevard.
The land, called The Room: Sanity's Edge - will be a stark contrast to the galactic lived in aesthetics of Star Wars on the polar opposite side of the park, as here there are poorly designed green screen backdrops of San Francisco streets, yet nevertheless, there will be the same level of immersion as Star Wars, because everywhere you walk cast members in tuxedos toss footballs your way from alleys, as you're running to the next ride through a park in the center of the land, and in many other obscure places.
As you walk through the town center, on your right side you see Anniversary Flowers & Gifts, where you can walk in to purchase a variety of amenities and even perhaps pet a random dog sitting on the counter, but don't spend too much time in there as guests can experience the Coffee Shop, where the waiter will ask you "how's your coffee?" with the follow up question "how's your sex life?"
But also don't miss the rooftop cafe, Tommy and Mark's, a spin on Victoria and Albert's where all the waiters and waitresses are named Tommy or Mark, with great views of a green screen San Francisco surrounding the restaurant, and from there, you can see the two main attractions Tommy has built in the park.
The Cable Car goes around the hill-filled streets of Sanity's Edge, with Disney's PhotoPass+ service snapping an on-ride photo as you pass by at a random point on the cable car, but that is nothing compared to the psychedelic acid trip of an attraction known as "Journey into Tommy's Mind" - a thrilling E-Ticket trackless dark ride through the boundless realms of Tommy's imagination, where you trek through seemingly endless dark hallways before being trapped in a chamber with no windows and no doors, and the only sound being Tommy's laughter getting increasingly magnified before it breaks you out and you proceed back to the land.
Bonus
The Disaster Hotel - where you dress and talk like Tommy for the duration of your stay, the hotel is completely free as well, Tommy makes plenty of money importing Korean jackets.

Time Zone
Dubbed an awful film in all matters of the world, In Time was an disappointment to all because it had such a great premise - time is a currency which people trade, hoard, and waste just like real money and everyone gets 25 years for free - but awful execution (36% on Rotten Tomatoes), which Disney hopes to correct in its new land, the Time Zone.
The land is set in a much more well-off area of the urban city of Los Angeles, and will be taking over the area around the Tower of Terror.
Hollywood Studio's most iconic ride (Tower of Terror) becomes Journey from the Time Mines, where we play the role of desperate workers who want to steal a bunch of time from their corrupt boss, who lives on the top floor of the giant tower.
After this land opens, Disney remakes the movie (that FOX owns) to be much of a social commentary about wage gaps and answers the big question of the movie (how do the rich have sooooo much time; Answer: they mine humans....).
BONUS: Build a boutique hotel where guests are trying to uncover clues and rob a Time Vault together as the story.

Well technically that response is 'one sentence'Oh no, I might not be able to make this challenge.
Oh noOh no, I might not be able to make this challenge.
!Still, you have nearly 6 hours...and even if all you have time for is something like -
The new land is based on [THIS ONE TERRIBLE MOVIE].
One ride is a dark ride.
One ride is a roller coaster.
Shopping and dining is based on when people shopped and ate in the terrible movie.
I’ll still give the underlying idea a fair critique, and you’ll get big points!
Is anyone else having timing problems right now? The proposal count is still fairly light.

Plastic Land
A land based on the film Mean Girls, you are transported to North Shore High School which will be a pavilion in Disney's Hollywood Studios housing all of the attractions. The Burn Boat is a flume ride through the tears of all the people who Regina and the Plastics have made fun of over the years and at the end of the ride you get to eat ice cream. The Cafeteria is a quick service restaurant that allows you to pick a clique to sit with, and The Limit Does Not Exist is a trackless ride through the school trying to run away from Regina after she finds out that the nutrition bars make her gain weight.
Bonus
A Boutique Resort themed to a sleepover with Regina's Mom's House (The Cool Mom)

John Carter: The Land of Mars
John Carter was one of the biggest flops in recent memory but it did have on thing going for it, it's beautiful scenery; with it being a Disney IP, it already made sense to take that extra step to create a whole land around this beautiful planet (saves money that can be focused towards the land) to replace the Indiana Jones area including the expansion area south of it.
The land will look like an early settlement just moved into this area of mars with no large buildings up but lots of movement throughout the land; a large mountain set can be seen at the far end of the land to serve as a backdrop while also holding the E-ticket attraction.
The first of two attractions will be a large, E-ticket, fantasyland dark ride, The Thark War will feature guests team up with John Carter and the Tharks to defeat the Warhoons once and for all in a ride vehicle designed after a Thark ship where the ride vehicle system is the EMV system to really immerse guests into the battle.
The C-ticket trackless flat ride for the land, The Woola Dance, will feature guests sitting on one of the best creatures from the film, the Woola, as they celebrate the anniversary of John Carter landing on the planet (this attraction would be similar to Luigi's Rollickin' Roadsters).
A small quick service restaurant will be next to The Woola Dance to provide guests with some snacks or drinks designed after food seen in the film while Sab Than's Market features all the John Carter related merchandise any fan could want!
Bonus:
The Hotel will be inspired after the hidden temple John Carter finds in the film where he learns of the way back home; all CM's will look like Tharks while the river hidden in the temple will constantly lead guests on new journeys.

Momworld
Based on the splendid film “Mars Needs Moms,” guests will have a chance to explore “Momworld,” a theme park land made by Martians to attract mothers and their families to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, robbing families of their money and mom’s. Taking over the space once occupied by Fantasmic comes the “Momworld Carnival,” where guests can ride on “brainwashing devices” disguised as cheap flat rides with cheap theming to cover up the alien plots. In an overlay of Tower of Terror, guests can experience ABDUCTION!, where guests can be lured into an alien ship museum that crash landed in the middle of Hollywood Studios on the premise of taking a tour, but once you are in your pods, you rise and fall to escape an ABDUCTION!
BONUS:
Moms can book a solo, two night “Mars Takes Moms” experience, where the mother, who booked without her families knowledge, will appear to be violently taken by alien guards that look like they should be in The Polar Express, only to be taken to a luxury resort built on the backside of the tower of terror for a kid free night!

The World of the Pagemaster
Guests enter through a Library facade only to find themselves not inside a building, but in the enchanting and magical World of the Pagemaster; adding literature to the many media based themes of Hollywood Studios (which currently includes movies, tv, and music).
Much like how the main character in the Pagemaster (the kid from Home Alone) is transported into the world of books and has to travel with his talking book companions (Horror (voiced by Frank Weller), Adventure (voiced by Patrick Stewart), and Fantasy (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg)) through their respective sections, guests will be transported to a courtyard featuring Dr. Jekyll's Castle, Adventure Island, and the Dragon's Mountain to represent the three genres.
The main attraction will be an E-Ticket Splash Boats Dark ride (like Jurassic Park River Adventure) through the world's of books including encounters with Frankenstein's Monster, Mr. Hyde, Ahab and the White Whale, Long John Silvers and his pirate crew, Oberon & Titania (the fairy royalty from a Midsummer Night's Dream), Puck, and a climactic encounter with the dragon before splashing down.
The boat ride will be narrated by Christopher Lloyd who played the Librarian in the film and, while it features many of the same literary worlds and characters, will not follow the plot of the movie, but it will be about a tour through the wonders of literature.
Other features of the land will include a Treasure Island themed ropes course/playground for kids, The Beanstalk (a QSR housed in a building that seems to have Jack's Beanstalk growing right through it), the Pagemaster's Bounty (a store featuring books and literature/Pagemaster themed merchandise), and a walkthrough Haunted How attraction themed to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde aimed at older guests and done similarly to a Halloween Horror Nights Maze.
Bonus
Guests will get to the chance to stay in Dr. Jekyll's Castle as a new boutique resort where the rooms a haunted and horror awaits (For authenticity, Disney will actually kill a different person in every room during construction so each room will be legitimately haunted!).

Fantasia Square
This land will take us into a world of music and magic as we go through a few of the 8 segments from Disney's Fantasia; originally a huge failure that nearly ruined Walt's career, this movie got a substantial following in the drug filled 60's.
The first ride will be a C-ticket teacups style ride where guest will get to choose either a hippo or alligator themed seat as they spin and dance around each other, themed to Dance of the Hours.
Next will be a slightly technologically upgraded Fantasyland style dark ride themed to the mouse himself Sorcerer Mickey, as we join him in "floating" water buckets on a basic play by play of the short with some nicer screen effects.
Lastly will be the lands E-ticket ride, A journey to Bald Mountain, where the guests will join the souls of the damned summoned to the top of bald mountain, encounter Chernobog himself, and then rush down and around to escape the deamon in this high speed indoor coaster.
Food will be found at the Pastorial, a basic QSR with one or two greek menu items and indoor seating designed after the segment of the same name; merchandise will be located in a Nutcracker Suite themed shop that shall sell gifts based on all Fantasia shorts directly next to a walk through fairy garden based on the same segment.
Bonus: This beautiful new hotel will let you stay in one of the four sesaons based around the Nutcracker Suit segment.

The emoji movie: The ride!!!!
Replacing rock n' rollercoaster, this rollercoaster will have guests join Gene and his crazy emoji friends in a wild, psychedelic chase through the mobile apps in the phone. Can Gene and his friends make it through the phone before Alex chooses an emoji? Around this ride will be textopolis. which will have stores with emoji merch, the tower of
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bonus: The textopolis hotel will have guests in different rooms themed to the squares in textopolis.
The Emoji Movie looked so bad to me, I refused to watch it even with the promise of lovemaking to follow.
Your challenge, then, is making a land based on a garbage cartoon sound appealing. Not an impossible task; look at Cars Land! WINKING FACE!(Apparently this website has an emoji limit, and I've passed it! SHOCKED FACE!)
So how'd you do? We start strong with the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster overlay, something it seems really suited to. Tower of Terror overlay...yeah. Would be neat if the land wasn't replacing what's already there, though I gather DHS is a little landlocked. There's not much here describing the land setting itself (other than simply referencing the movie). For other features, we have a stage show...with emojis. A Fantasmic segment...with emojis. All sound doable, but I'd really like a little more on what makes them uniquely exciting!
Bonus: I think I stayed in this hotel once in Tokyo.
The World of Tomorrowland
Welcome to the World of Tomorrowland, based off of the flop movie in 2015, where you can experience many attractions, such as the “Tomorrowland Flights”, which reuses the Star Tours simulators for a high-flying adventure where you can fly around the Tomorrowland City.
Another attraction is “The Tomorrowland Expo”, which is a omnimover that shows you about this city of the future, and there new technologies as well as how this city became what it is today, as well as the pins, and after you experience that, you can experience the “Rocket Rods: The Highway of the Future” which is a ride where you can board a rocket as dreamed by a scholar of the past for a zipping ride through this land, as well as a dark ride portion similar to Test Track.
A new roller coaster will be added, similar to Green Lantern in Six Flags Great Adventure where you stand up flying on a jetpack over Tomorrowland, before entering a dark ride portion where you discover the many rooms and more about this famous city.
There will be 2 restaurants (The Bionic Bar where animatronics serve you drinks and appetizers, and the Tomorrowland Food Festival where you can be served some interesting and unique foods) and 2 shops (The Tomorrowland Emporium and Innoventions, which sells new and future inventions).
Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland shows the future that never was, while Tomorrowland in Hollywood Studios showcases the future that was built by the dreamers of the past, making this new land a must do for all guests.
Bonus: You can stay inside of a hotel inside of the land, “The Tomorrowland Inn”, which is a hotel for guests to stay inside of Tomorrowland, which will be a highly immersed experience.
This challenge’s intentional loopholes were designed specifically for cool underperforming movies just like Tomorrowland. It would certainly be a great theme park setting – I mean, it’s inspire by one!. What you’ve proposed here sounds like an incredibly smart renovation to the existing Tomorrowland model, with a more self-assured aesthetic, a wide variety of really special rides to entice different guests, shopping and dining which flesh out the experience you’ve created, and a lovely map to tie it all together.
The one major question mark is creating a new Tomorrowland in DHS. Redoing Magic Kingdom’s land with these ideas? Sold! Doing a second Tomorrowland in Walt Disney World, with the same name in a different park? I’m not so sure about that. Even Epcot would fit this better than DHS.
Bonus: A good underlying concept for a cool-sounding hotel!
Oh hai space!
Terrific choice! The Room is undeniably awful, but also a subtly ironic “so bad it’s good” masterpiece. This challenge had a few different viable approaches, and I’m glad to see a Z-grade flop represented!
The Room is a tricky idea for an immersive land (compared to its schlocky sci-fi/horror Turkey brethren) since its setting is basically contemporary San Francisco but with more fake-looking alleyways. You’ve handled that well! The green screens everywhere and the streetmosphere actors are all a very “DHS” solution to the challenge, embracing a fairly “studio park” version of Tommy Wiseau’s triumph. I love the cheeky name reference to Galaxy’s Edge. The various rides, shops and restaurants all fit, and honestly made me chuckle quite a bit. The only thing we’re missing is a show attraction where guests can perform as actors on Wiseau’s set, which would be tremendous fun.
Bonus: Haha! Sounds good space.
