List of highest-grossing films in Canada and the United States

The following is a list of the highest-grossing films in Canada and the United States, a market known in the film industry as the North American box office and the domestic box office,^[1][2] and where "gross" is defined in US dollars.

Adjusted for ticket-price inflation

This chart was compiled based on data from Box Office Mojo, by dividing the gross by the average ticket price to calculate an estimate of the total number of admissions.^[3] Admissions better reflect the popularity of older films, since they are less susceptible to the effects of inflation.

Many of the films on this list released prior to the availability of home video have had multiple releases.

   Background shading indicates films playing in the week commencing 06 May 2016 in theaters around the world.

Factors in determining “adjusted gross”

No one yet has calculated a truly precise and definite referential adjusted gross for a film, since doing so would have to take into account most (or all) of the following:

• Box office gross on initial release
• Ticket price at time of release, or its relative price to other commodities in a given year,^[5] in relation to general inflation and gross domestic product.^[6] Related to that:
• economic conditions that may help or hurt the entertainment industry as a whole (theaters in 2008 lowered ticket prices to attract more viewers though the average ticket cost $7.00)^[5]
• Population at time of release—to be used to calculate:
• Availability of films (number of theaters and screens, number of prints)
• Competition of other media (television, internet, home video, film piracy)^[5]
• Total number of films in the marketplace at a given time^[5]
• Screen quotas (no influence on U.S. box office)
• Price differences: matinee and evening tickets,^[7] roadshow tickets,^[7] or difference between rural and urban cinemas^[6]
• Length of release (number of weeks)^[7]

Further explanation of issues with calculating an adjusted gross can be found in the article for List of highest-grossing films.

Not adjusted for inflation

This is a list of the highest-grossing films in the U.S. and Canada,^[8] a market known in the film industry as the North American box office, or as the domestic box office within the U.S. itself.^[1][2] The chart is ranked by lifetime gross, and for comparison, the figures adjusted for the effects of inflation are also listed, using the U.S. consumer price index;^[9] a film's earnings from its initial release are also included to provide a basis for comparison between films released around the same time.

Notes

1. The figure of 97,255,300 is an average value based on Box Office Mojo estimating the number of admissions by dividing gross revenue by the cost of an average ticket. However in the case of Avatar, ticket sales are a combination of the three formats of 2D, 3D and IMAX used during its theatrical run. Since box office admissions are not tracked, the total number of admissions cannot therefore be accurately determined simply by dividing the gross receipts by the average ticket price. Box Office Mojo revised estimate - by taking account of the ticket prices for all three different formats - is that Avatar sold 75 million tickets by April 21, 2010, by which time it had grossed $745 million of its $760 million total.^[4] An extra $15 million of sales would be equivalent to about 2 million more ticket sales, at the average 2D ticket price of $7.50 in 2009; using this revision, Avatar probably sold closer to 77,000,000 tickets.^[5]
