Shouldn't be top 10...

Rating: 7/10 (9 October 2014)

The movie I picked that did do well in the box office but kind of shocked me that it was so high was The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. I loved the Hunger Games series, loved the books more, but regardless, loved the movie. It comes in at number 10 on the All-Time USA Box office in- between E.T. and Pirates of the Caribbean. While I loved the movie I don't think it was good enough to be in the number 10 spot. The top two movies on the list are Avatar and Titanic, two movies that earned that spot by being fairly advanced for the time they were made, which brought in a lot of people to see it. There was no spectacular special effects in the Hunger Games: Catching Fire, and while the story behind it was creative it became boring at some points and predictable to people who didn't read the books. I think the reason it is number 10 is because of the well known actors and the fact that it was a book first. If it wasn't for them, I highly believe it wouldn't have been as successful as it is now.
