Jurassic World becomes third biggest movie of all time after overtaking The Avengers

July 22, 2015 by Gary Collinson

After surpassing Furious 7 a couple of days ago, Jurassic World has now overtaken the worldwide box office haul of Marvel’s The Avengers to become the third-biggest movie of all time.

To date, the Colin Trevorrow-directed sequel has pulled in $1.522 billion, compared to The Avengers’ $1.520 billion (which included a re-release). However, second place may be a step too far, with James Cameron’s Titanic sitting on $2.186 billion.

So, it looks like it’s going to be a straight fight between Jurassic World and Star Wars: The Force Awakens for 2015’s biggest blockbuster. Where would you put your money?

Wong (Jurassic Park) and Judy Greer (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes).
