Movies Redux
I promised a while back this was coming, so, here, to further demonstrate just what a classless pop-culture consumer I am, is the list of the top-grossing movies of all time, adjusted for inflation. Going into it, I'm guess I've seen fewer of these than of the last list, which was actual dollars, and thus waited more towards modern fluff than beloved classics. Movies I've seen are in bold. 1 Gone With the Wind 2 Star Wars 3 The Sound of Music 4 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial 5 The Ten Commandments 6 Titanic 7 Jaws 8 Doctor Zhivago 9 The Exorcist 10 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 11 101 Dalmatians 12 The Empire Strikes Back 13 Ben-Hur (Several of this are ones I've seen bits and pieces of, but not all the way through) 14 Return of the Jedi 15 The Sting 16 Raiders of the Lost Ark 17 Jurassic Park 18 The Graduate 19 The Phantom Menace 20 Fantasia 21 The Godfather 22 Forrest Gump 23 Mary Poppins 24 The Lion King 25 Grease 26 Thunderball 27 The Jungle Book 28 Sleeping Beauty 29 Ghostbusters 30 Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid 31 Bambi 32 Independence Day 33 Love Story 34 Beverly Hills Cop 35 Spider-Man 36 Home Alone 37 Pinocchio 38 Cleopatra 39 Goldfinger 40 Airport 41 American Graffiti 42 The Robe 43 Around the World in 80 Days 44 Blazing Saddles 45 Batman 46 The Bells of St. Mary's 47 The Return of the KingThis has got to be the animated version, right? ;) 48 The Towering Inferno 49 National Lampoon's Animal House 50 The Passion of the Christ 51 The Greatest Show on Earth 52 My Fair Lady 53 Let's Make Love 54 Back to the Future 55 The Two Towers 56 Superman 57 Smokey and the Bandit 58 The Sixth Sense 59 Finding Nemo 60 Tootsie 61 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone 62 West Side Story 63 Lady and the Tramp 64 Close Encounters of the Third Kind 65 Twister 66 Rocky 67 The Best Years of Our Lives 68 The Fellowship of the Ring 69 The Poseidon Adventure 70 Men in Black 71 The Bridge on the River Kwai 72 Its' a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World 73 Swiss Family Robinson 74 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest 75 M*A*S*H Can you get partial credit by watching AfterMASH? 76 Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom 77 Attack of the Clones 78 Mrs. Doubtfire 79 Aladdin 80 Ghost 81 Duel in the Sun 82 Pirates of the Caribbean 83 House of Wax 84 Rear Window 85 The Lost World: Jurassic Park 86 Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade 87 Terminator 2: Judgment Day 88 How the Grinch Stole Christmas 89 Sergeant York 90 Toy Story 2 91 Top Gun 92 Shrek 93 Crocodile Dundee 94 The Matrix Reloaded 95 Saving Private Ryan 96 The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse 97 Young Frankenstein 98 Peter Pan 99 Gremlins 100 Monsters, Inc. So, yeah, 64 out of 100, versus 73 out of the non-adusted list. Still better than my 44 of the 100 best, though.
