What is your favorite movie?
We all have one particular movie that comes to mind when we ask ourselves this question. Is yours an older classic, or is it this year's hottest summer blockbusters? For many flick fanatics, they will even see a movie more than once while it's still in theaters! And with today's movie ticket prices, that shows commitment!
So when we want to think about what the most popular movies are, a great way for us to gain some valuable insight is to take a look at the highest grossing box office hits of all time--this just in, from Box Office Mojo:
#3: "Marvel's The Avengers"
Lifetime Gross: $623,357,910
Having a lifetime gross of over $623 million, this movie was explosive! Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D (a superhero group composed of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, The Incredible Hulk, and Hawkeye) must lead the group into saving the world against the threat of Thor's brother, Loki). Packed with action and superheros galore, this movie will have you itching for more.
#2: "Titanic"
Lifetime Gross: $658,672,302
Yes, you guessed it: "Titanic" has made the top 3. A James Cameron film, Titanic tells the remarkable story of the famous sinking of the Titanic. It follows the story of two people, who share differing standards of life, yet they fall madly in love with one another. Little do they know, their time spent with one another may be short-lived.
...and the highest grossing box office hit of all time goes to....
#1: "Avatar"
Lifetime Gross: $760,507,625
When Jake's (a papraplegic marine) brother is tragically killed, he is enlisted to take his brother's place on a mission in Pandora, a distant planet full of wildlife and a clan called "The Navi" who are connected to Pandora through their senses. While on an intel-gathering mission, he grows accustomed to the Navi's ways, and falls in love with a Navi woman. As the humans move towards demolishing the Navi's land and thus, their entire existence, Jake and Neytiri must lead the Navi in a fight for their survival.

Yes! Titanic, I must admit is one of my favorite movies.
ReplyDeleteI do like Avatar, but number one in my top 3 is It's a Wonderful Life. From my understanding, it was a box office flop when it was released. Go figure!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite movie of all time is Little Miss Sunshine but I definitely have a soft spot for Marvel movies and LOVED The Avengers. I saw it at midnight the night it was released!
ReplyDeleteI do love The Avengers; however, I just saw The Great Gatsby and fell in love! Watched it two nights in a row.
