Trivia Fun(?): Guess This List

No more guesses on the Lists A?
OK, try List C. What do these films have in common?

  • Avatar
  • Gone With the Wind
  • Sound of Music
  • The Birth of a Nation
  • Titanic
22

It seems like a weak connection, but they are all over two hours long.

23

Largest grossing movies accounting for inflation?

24

Almost. Hint: There was no adjustment for inflation.

25

Largest grossing movies

26

Not quite. Top Gun: Maverick grossed 100 times what The Birth of a Nation did, but the former doesn’t qualify for the list, while the latter does.

Meanwhile Lists A1, A2, A7 have received little interest. :frowning: I should go away quietly.

27

Could it be largest grossing non-sequels

28

They are the largest grossing movies of their respective year and decade.

29

Close enough. Each of the movies on List C was, at one time, the highest-grossing movie of All-Time.

I thought it interesting how Gone With the Wind held the record for so very long. It was followed by Sound of Music, which also held the record for a long while. Titanic kept the record for 12 years. Avatar 15 years but probably won’t hold on much longer.
