The Answer to “B”

The highest-grossing film of all time starting with the letter “B” is…

Batman

That would be the Tim Burton 1989 Batman not the awesome Leslie H. Martinson 1966 Batman, whose grosses are surprisingly hard to track down (so who knows, maybe it really is the highest grossing “B”).

Burton’s Batman made $251,188,924.  Less than $10 million ahead of its nearest competition, 2003′s Bruce Almighty, which raked in $242,704,995.  In third comes the recently-defeated-for-highest-grossing-R-rated-comedy Beverly Hills Cop, which made $234,760,478.

Also in the $200 million “B” club: The Bourne Ultimatum$227,471,070, Back to the Future$210,609,762, and Batman Begins$205,343,774.
