Thread: 100 million dollar movies 2008 and top 10 best films of 2008

  1. #41
    We'll see, Iron Man has had better legs over the course of it's run - Crystal Skull may not catch it. If it does, the two won't be seperated by more than 2 million bucks.

  2. #42
    Like you said, I think the difference will be very close between the two.

    Its been a while since I updated this
    1. The Dark Knight $505,954,123
    2. Iron Man $317,869,143
    3. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull $315,898,859
    4. Hancock $227,381,199
    5.Wall E $218,577,395
    6. Kung Fu Panda $213,816,074
    7. Dr. Seuss's Horton Hears a Who $154,529,187
    8. Sex and the City $152,540,581
    9. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian $141,614,023
    10. The Incredible Hulk $134,528,880
    11. Wanted $134,040,510
    12. Mamma Mia $133,211,120
    13. Get Smart $128,481,759

    Tropical Thunder, Step Brothers, and The Mummy 3 will all join this list soon. It will be close for Zohan and Journey to the Center of the Earth. That would be it for the summer. The only films guaranteed for the winter I feel is Quantum of Solace, Madagascar 2, High School Musical 3, and Bedtime stories. I think Twilight, Four Christmases, Bolt, The Day the Earth Stood still, Yes Men, and Marley and Me are all possibilities as well. I think either Bedtime stories or Quantum of solace will win.

    5.Wall E $223,749,872
    6. Kung Fu Panda $215,434,591
    7. Madagascar Escape 2 Africa $170,125,401
    8. Quantum of Solace $157,945,719
    9. Dr. Seuss's Horton Hears a Who $154,529,187
    10. Sex and the City $152,647,258
    11. Twilight $150,758,754
    12. Mamma Mia $143,762,955
    13. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian $141,621,490
    14. The Incredible Hulk $134,533,885
    15. Wanted $134,327,125
    16. Get Smart $130,319,208
    17. Tropic Thunder $110,461,307
    18. The Mummy 3 $102,277,510
    19 Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D $101,704,370
    20 Eagle Eye $100,660,387
    21 Step Brothers $100,468,793
    22 You don't Mess with the Zohan $100,018,837

    I should have updated this earlier but been very busy. a lot of new movies now. I can't believe Twilight might pass Quantum. Bolt and 4 Christmases should go above 100 next. Day the Earth Stood Still bombed. I think Yes Man, Seven Pounds, Bedtime Stories, Marley and Me, and Benjamin Burton all have chances at the century mark.

    I hoped that Wall E would have some longer legs. Talking about animation: 4 of the Top 10 movies are animation movies this year! The best of these movies does not even have a stellar voice actor cast.
    It will be intresting to see if this development will go on in the years to come.
    Maybe one day Buzz Lightyear or Wall-E will get the best acter academy award.

    Wouldn't that have to be best voice actor?

    Since the other thread was unfortunetly closed going to use this one for a dual purpose, so put your top 10 films here if you would like. For me I only have a top 5 right now
    1 The Dark Knight
    2 Wall E
    3 Iron Man
    4 Tropic Thunder
    5 The Bucket List

    I'd like to know where the "swear" filter was bypassed in that thread because I read it twice and didnt see it anywhere. The only thing it could have been is a very obvious joke about shakey cam and what it does to the viewer. And that was plainly a joke so WTF?

    Took me a few times reading through it and I think it was because of the last line in the first post.

    Yep, you got it Liam.

    I'm sure the rest of management would prefer to keep my objections private, so we'll just leave it at that.

    Took a few read throughs to find it for me as well, but then again, I am not word police reading posts with a magnifying glass. I always thought people should be allowed to express themselves as they wish, as long as it is not inflammatory. If I am allowed to think that.


    I've not ranked my favorite movies yet, so here are 10 favorites of mine in no specific order:

    - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
    - Milk
    - Let the Right One In
    - The Dark Knight
    - Iron Man
    - Gran Torino
    - Burn After Reading
    - Slumdog Millionaire
    - Frost/Nixon
    - Wall-E

    You see most of those movies I want to see badly, especially Frost/Nixon and Milk. I have to wait till they expand. I should go check out Button as well soon.

    I'm sure the staff appreciates how you feel, guys, but the rules are what the rules have been, and by posting here in the first place you are agreeing to abide by them, such as they are. This has not changed, and will not change.

    As usual, Yog and I have many of the same films. And I still need to have some he has on there, so they may be even more alike soon.

    27. You don't Mess with the Zohan $100,018,837

    Several new films, Marley and Me should get over 150 and could make the top 10. Benjamin Button could too if it wins big Oscar night. I still can't believe Twilight it is the #1 movie post Labor Day (although that happened because Harry Potter moved). Gran Turino and Slumdog Millionaire both should past 100 million and that will set a record for most 100 million dollar films.

    I had to add Slumdog and Gran Torino. Slumdog should make the top 10 maybe get as high as 175 million. Yes Man is the only other film that is close, but it needs like 2.7 million so I don't think it gets there.
