Those predictions were indeed accurate, as The Force Awakensbecame the highest grossing movie in North American history less than a month after it was released to the public.

The latest edition of Star Wars is not the king of the worldwide rankings, though, as the film still has a ways to go before it catches up to a movie that was released back in 2009.
One would be right to believe that it seems as if blockbuster movies are bigger and more popular with customers each year. Five of what were, as of January 2016, the 20 highest grossing films of all time were released at different points of 2015. As big a year as 2015 was for the movie industry, we could see additional records be topped in 2016. The first contender to the throne will likely be a pre-summer blockbuster that will feature multiple superheroes battling it out in a movie that will likely, financially speaking, be different than many films before it. Will it be big enough to claim the top spot on the list of the highest grossing films of all time? We shall see.
20. Jurassic Park: $1,038,812,584
The movie that is mentioned in the opening paragraph for this piece and also the first that makes the list of the highest grossing films of all time serve as reminders for why studios continue to go back to popular ideas that have been used in the past. Jurassic Park, released in 1993, presented a larger-than-life unimaginable world in which dinosaurs roamed the earth with humans. Fans were thrilled to learn that the series would be rebooted, in a sense, via a movie that was released in 2015, and that film financially out-performed the original by a ton of money.
