Highest Grossing Movies Ever (Worldwide) - The $500,000,000 Club!
Looking to build the ultimate DVD collection?! Why not start with
the 38 movies that have grossed over $500,000,000 world wide? That
collection will span movies from the 1970s to such recent films as 2005's War of the Worlds - now I bet you didn't expect that to be on the list already!! Notice the difference between the worldwide list and the list of USA's highest grossing movies - you will see that overseas, big name celebrities like Tom Cruise and Arnold Schwarzenegger are bigger draws than nationally.
