The Canadian director James Cameron has become the highest grossing in the history of cinema with three films among the four highest grossers have achieved so far, while the Spanish Juan Antonio Bayona has slipped into position 21 with one of the sequels to “Jurassic World“.
According to data published by the specialized magazine “Variety”, “Avatar“(2009) and its sequel”Avatar: the path of water“(Avatar, The Way of Water), from 2022, both directed by Cameron, remain in the positions number 1 and 3, respectively, with more than $5.2 billion in revenue worldwide combined. In second place is “Avengers: Endgame“(Avengers: Endgame) (2019), from the Marvel factory and directed by Anthony and Joe Russowhich has raised $2.7 billion.
He drama “Titanic” (1997), also by James Cameron, remains in the fourth place with a collection of more than 2.2 billionfollowed by one of the sequels to the Star Wars saga, “Star Wars: Episode VII, The Force Awakens” (2015), with a gross of just over 2,000 millions.
In the list of the thirty highest-grossing films in history, it appears in the place 21 “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom), 2018 and directed by Spanish Juan Antonio Bayona, which has raised $1.3 billion.
“Variety” recalls that several of the films at the top of this list were released in the last decade, benefiting from today’s higher ticket prices, although each of them has demonstrated enough staying power at the global box office to break record after record.
This list is not adjusted for inflation and determining the best films of all time at the time of their release is an imperfect science, the specialized magazine acknowledges. But if only the releases in the United States and Canada are analyzed, it is estimated that the best films adjusted to the real proportional value in collection at the time are “gone With the Wind“(Gone with the Wind),”Star Wars” (Star Wars), “The Sound of Music” (Smiles and tears), “ET the alien” (ET The Extra-Terrestrial) and “Titanic.”
