    How many of these movies have you watched?
    Edit: I remember when Titanic remained in the top spot without much competition, yet it isn’t even in the top five anymore.

      Unfortunately, top grossing doesn't necessarily mean good so I haven't watched many of those in top positions.

        I’ve watched a good chunk of the top movies. Most of them aren’t Oscar-worthy, but they’re still worth a watch.

          I've watched The Force Awakens of course. The first 2 movies in that trilogy were great. I didn't care for the Ewoks in the third.
          I just don't agree with those placings.

                I wasn’t a fan of the sequel, as much as I watched it just to see some of the characters from the original movie.

                  That's USA only. The total worldwide grosses are much different. Avatar is at the top, followed by Avengers: Endgame. The Force Awakens is in 6th.

                        Doesn't mean a thing. Look at tickets sold instead in U.S. only. Gone with the Wind ranks number 1 all-time and will never be beaten.

                          It’s crazy how even Avatar couldn’t beat Gone with the Wind in that category.

                            Yeah, it seems like an unfair list with inflation and the way the value of the dollar shrinks.
                            Like where would Titanic fit now?
                            Since you seem to be a film buff before CGI and SFX took over to be the main thing in movies, it's too bad all of those top movies use all of that **** instead of something that uses acting as the main drive for it without the crutches.

                              It's a major, major reason why I can't watch films after 2000. I am really looking for that human quality, and all I get is robots.
                              As for the top-grossing films, I find it funny because they would create charts showing them but always cut them off on the left end, so that way, The Birth of a Nation and Gone with the Wind wouldn't be shown. If they did include them, it would be nearly lopsided.

                                Yeah, we share similar tastes in film genre.
                                That is why I suggest the movies I do knowing what you prefer.
                                They have very little to zero CGI or other SFX, mostly.

                                    I'm sure plenty of folks hate to hear this but last time I checked, '
                                    GONE WITH THE WIND
                                    ' is still reigning all-time champion.
                                    Plenty of people hate hearing it because hatred for the film itself has grown concomitantly with the rise in political-correctness.

                                      Adjusted for inflation is it is the highest grossing.

                                        Beauty and the Beast at #22 is the highest one I haven't seen. 33 total that I've missed. Mostly the Twilights, kids movies, and Disney live action remakes.

                                          ranking should only be on # of tickets sold
