The Billionaire Movie Club: The 15 Highest Grossing Films of All Time

[Ace of Spade]

What would you guys say is the best movie on the list?



The top 10 when adjusted for inflation. Gone With The Wind is still #1 by about 600 million over Avatar. It made $400 million when tickets were only 25 cents. That is crazy money.

1. Gone with the Wind $3,301,400,000 (1939)

2. Avatar $2,782,300,000 (2009)

Some shit movies on there.

 

[Sasquatch Smith]

Alice In Wonderland? Hmmm...odd.

 

[Caution]

Some shit movies on there.

This.

 

[mrsinister]

Alice in Wonderland and Episode 1 being on that list is proof that there is no God.

 

[Badassoverhere**]

Only seen two of them, and I didn't like either.

 

[Benoco]

Nice to see The Return of The King on the list, The Lord of The Rings trilogy is the most monumental film project I can think of and Peter Jackson was definitely more concerned with doing the books justice and making the best films possible than trying to milk devoted fans.

 

[Ace of Spade]

So... I guess I should go watch SkyFall... is it really that good?

 

[LEWIS540]

Is there a lit for dvd/vhs sales as well?

 

[Troublesome10]

I haven't seen most of those and I'm somewhat proud of that.

 

[Cid]

All in the golden age of piracy, but yeah they're losing billions

 

[raoulduke666]

It's kind of what I expected. It's all about the casual audience though, blah.

E.T. though is one of my all-time fav's

No, not really, some of these scores are a bit off, subjectively or objectively. Casine Royale is still by far the best of the new(er) ones. Go and rewatch the old ones .

 

[Ring Shark98]

So...Avatar made 2.7 trillion?

 

[lsvtecjohn3]

was going to say the same thing.

You're in favor of letting people trample over your copyrights?

 

[808Darce]

WTF is Avatar?

 

[minute bull]

So... I guess I should go watch SkyFall... is it really that good?

Not even close.

 

[gotBooched]

the only movie i have seen on there is titanic. wtf.

 

[Peteyandjia]

Surprised by Burton's Alice in Wonderland, didn't realize it was that big.

Also kinda shocked at Skyfall, had no idea it was a smash like that. And for the above poster who asked, no, it's utterly mediocre tripe. Casino Royale is about 10x better.

Also, lol @ James Cameron having #1 AND #2, and also having the only 2 movies in history to surpass 2 billion. And, he's been deeper into the Earth than any other human being. He's not exactly fucking around in this lifetime, is he?
