The UK Film Council have released the new Statistical Yearbook for 2009, a compendium of numbers that delight geeks like me. One of the new features this year includes an inflation-adjusted Top 20 chart of the most popular films of the last 35 years.
1975 is a great year to start counting, since it's the beginning of the modern blockbuster era with the release of JAWS that summer.
Here's the lineup:
1- Titanic (1997)
2- Harry Potter & the Philosopher's Stone (2001)
3- Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
4- Mamma Mia! (2008)
5- Jaws (1975)
6- Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003)
7- Jurassic Park (1993)
8- The Full Monty (1997)
9- Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
10- Star Wars (1977)
11- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
12- Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999)
13- Grease (1978)
14- Casino Royale (2006)
15- Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)
16- E.T. (1983)
17- Toy Story 2 (2000)
18- Shrek 2 (2004)
19- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
