Top 10 highest-grossing movies of all time (adjusted for inflation)
Top 10 highest grossing movies of all time (adjusted for inflation) - The value of money is not fixed but changes over time based on the rate of inflation. Of course, this also affects how much money a movie makes at the box office. While all the top movies today easily make billions of dollars, generating such profits was unthinkable half a century ago. However, if you adjust for the inflation rate, you'll find that many older movies have actually been as financially successful as their modern counterparts.
As a result, the following Top 10 Ranking ranks the highest-grossing movies of all time, adjusted for inflation. You can think of this ranking as the Top 10 Ranking which is perhaps more accurate of the 10 highest grossing movies of all time. Older movies are at a clear disadvantage in this ranking because despite their financial success at the box office, they still haven't been able to generate the billions of dollars in profits they are today. Unlike in the regular rankings, expect to see some all-time classics with this inflation-adjusted ranking.
Note: This chart ranks the 10 highest-grossing movies of all time based on worldwide financial success adjusted for inflation. You can find a ranking of the Top 10 Greatest Movies of All Time, based on critics' ratings.
