1.Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

After a break of a few years we were all excited about this latest installment of the franchise and even though it may not have been as good as the others it was still enjoyable to watch. This movie did end up grossing $1.045 billion at the box office, so it was not all bad then.

2.Toy Story 3

We loved the first one, we loved the second one, and of course we loved the third one as well and that is shown by the fact that it has grossed $1.063 billion at the box office. We really did fall in love with all of the different characters and when you consider the different things that you could buy with them in shops this franchise has made ridiculous sums of money.

3.Pirates of the Caribbean: dead Man's Chest

We all love these movies and this version from 2006 has grossed $1.066 billion at the box office. It is the mixture of characters and the way they interact that just makes these movies stand out and in actual fact it is a surprise that it has not grossed more.

4.The Dark Knight Rises

This was the latest Batman movie and Heath Ledger really was such a good Joker in it that it is no surprise that it took in so much money at the box office. It is just a pity that he died before it was finished and could not see the success it had that led to it grossing $1.084 billion.

5.Skyfall

This is the highest grossing Bond movie ever and it is also seen as being one of the best as well. It shows that even though Bond is 50 years old that we still love him and with this movie grossing $1.108 billion you know that they will make another one.

6.The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

This was a movie that people were really looking forward to as so many people have read the books and just wanted to see it on the big screen. This anticipation is seen in the amount of money that it has taken at the box office because at the last count it stood at $1.11 billion.

7.Transformers: Dark of the Moon

The amazing thing here is that this movie was actually pretty rubbish, but there must have been something about it since it ended up grossing $1.12 billion at the box office. It has to have purely been due to the word Transformers as it is certainly not for the storyline.

8.Iron Man 3

The Iron Man series has been a real success and this third installment has been the highest grossing movie of them all. This episode has so far brought in $1.21 billion around the world and it just helps to show the popularity of it.

9.Harry Potter and the deathly Hallows Part 2

The big question here is why part 2 did so much better at the box office than part 1 because surely if you missed the first part is there any point in watching the second half? Anyway, this movie grossed $1.34 billion worldwide.

10.Marvel's The Avengers

This movie from 2012 was absolutely loved by people around the world leading to it grossing $1.51 billion. The thing that it had going for it was that it was loved by kids and also the big kids that used to read the comics as a child.

11.Titanic

Titanic may have came out in 1997, but it has still grossed $2.18 billion worldwide. This is pretty amazing considering everybody knows that the ship is going to sink at the end, so we know how events will unfold, but we still love it.

12.Avatar

This movie grossed an amazing $2.78 billion worldwide putting it in a clear first place in the list of every single movie that has ever been made. You have to admit that with the work that went into it that it did kind of deserve to do so well.
