December 16, 201510 yr They don't deserve to be in the conversation and no one will name them if I don't, but the SAW series. Group of buddies and I would go every Halloween weekend to see the new one.
December 16, 201510 yr My top 5 favorites would be: Lord of the Rings Indiana Jones The Dark Night Toy Story SAW
December 16, 201510 yr ^ I always liked the Die Hard series. Which brings up one of the great movie debate questions. Is the first Die Hard movie a Christmas movie? It takes place during Christmas but it is not a movie about Christmas so no, it is not a Christmas movie.

December 16, 201510 yr It takes place during Christmas but it is not a movie about Christmas so no, it is not a Christmas movie. Agreed.
December 17, 201510 yr A handful that I haven't seen mentioned Lethal Weapon Death Wish Nightmare on Elm Street Halloween Matrix Highlander
December 17, 201510 yr In no particular order Star Wars Rocky- I,II,IV, Balboa and Creed all solid and fun movies III & V Suck Dark Knight Toy Story Godfather Jack Ryan Series...So many more that Could/Should be made Hunger Games Harry Potter Iron Man...even though 2 sucks Captain America will make the list as soon as Civil War releases Bond...James Bond Mission Impossible Despicable Me...love me some Minions!
December 19, 201510 yr Easily the Godfather. I can't take any list with Star Wars on it seriously. I feel that way about Lord of the Rings.
December 19, 201510 yr Here are the top franchises in order by sales (I did not include lumped in series like all Pixar, Marvel, etc.): Harry Potter James Bond Star Wars Spiderman (all 5 movies) Shrek Jurassic Park Twilight Hunger Games Transformers X-Men Fast and Furious Pirates of the Caribean Star Trek (all movies) Dark Night Trilogy Avengers (just the 2 Avengers movies) Lord of the Rings (just the 3 LOR) Iron Man Despicable Me Mission Impossible Indiana Jones Toy Story The Hobbit Superman Ice Age Madagascar Planet of the Apes (all 8) The Hangover Bourne Men in Black The Terminator The Fockers The Matrix Rocky Alvin and the Chipmunks The Mummy Night at the Museum Narnia Alien Rush Hour Die hard Ninja Turtles Jack Ryan Home Alone Lethal Weapon Austin Powers Scary Movie And way below these you will find The Godfather (at least it is ahead of Dumb and Dumber). Amazing how much ticket revenue has increased over the years. Here is the entire list: All-Time Top Film Franchises - Box Office
