Jurassic World was released last month and met huge commercial success. So much so, in fact, that it is now the third highest-grossing movie of all time.
According to
The top two highest-earning films, Titanic and Avatar, made $2.18 billion and $2.79 billion lifetime, respectively. Although it's unlikely that Jurassic World catches up to these films, the movie is still in theaters in some markets. Its total will still rise a little more.
The studio behind Jurassic World, Universal, also released Furious 7 this year, which made $1.51 billion. That puts it only about $10 million behind The Avengers.
The top five highest-grossing movies are:
Avatar ($2.79 billion)
Titanic ($2.18 billion)
Jurassic World ($1.52 billion)
The Avengers ($1.52 billion)
Furious 7 ($1.51 billion)
Jurassic World is the follow up to Steven Speilberg's Jurassic Park series. It features Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard.

This Means War
The heart of every Pennsic festival is a mock war between kingdoms and their allies. Players who succeed in battles or other event activities earn war points. The kingdom with the most war points wins the war. (Photo by: Ron Lutz II, http://www.ronlutzii-photographer.com)
To Arms!
The battle is fought in an area called the "Barony-Marche of the Debatable Lands," otherwise known as Pittsburgh and greater southwestern Pennsylvania. (Photo by: Ron Lutz II, http://www.ronlutzii-photographer.com)
