What does the list look like adjusting for inflation/ticket prices etc?

Still doesn't mean they're good.

Alice in Wonderland?

True the best one is number 11. Not sure which Lord of the rings I like the best. First transformer movie was the best ... But I can't really say I hated any of them except the Harry and Alice movies...I am easy to please at the movies..

What about "Dark Shadows?" Where is Dark Shadows going to end up?

I would have thought one of those stupid teen vampire/werewolf movies with Kristen Stewart or whatever her name is would have gotten into the list...

The Avengers stands at Number 32 all-time worldwide and climbing right now. Experts think it will land in the top 5, and probably settle in at number 4 right behind Harry Potter.. I hope it can beat it and land in the three spot...

Gone with the Wind, Star Wars, Sound of Music, ET, Titanic...top 5 adjusted.

Gone with the Wind, overrated. I love, I mean love classic movies from the 30's, 40's and 50's but this was overrated. And Sound of Music is a chick/young girl flick.

I have a soft spot for Sound of Music.

THe songs in it are pretty damn catchy.

"So long, farewell, auf schvieder (sp?) and adieu"

The avengers went over the Billion dollar mark last weekend and did it in 19 days... Faster then both Avatar, and the last potter movie.. I think it has a shot at number one.. I think it will land at number 3 and over take the potter movie for sure...
