	Wow. No Termniator?

	president_benson:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:22 GMT		36 points
	since when did the lord of the rings have four movies? it's a trilogy.

	tobinw:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:24 GMT		44 points
	Rather surprised there are no horror series in here (Scream, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, etc.)

	Liberal:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:24 GMT		8 points
	The original animated movie. I think it was The Hobbit.

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:25 GMT		34 points
	I knew I was going to feel stupid once the one with 23 movies showed up, and sure enough...

	Nezu_Chiza:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:27 GMT		6 points
	It includes the horrible rotoscoped Lord of the Rings from 1978.

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:28 GMT		3 points
	@WestWingerjd, I wonder if it'd crack the list if this quiz were posted in a couple months.

	thriceratop:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:31 GMT		102 points
	Hahaha, when I saw that one of them had 23 movies I immediately typed in, "The Land Before Time."

	austin massachusetts:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:32 GMT		13 points
	/facepalm I just feel terrible for forgetting so many of these series.

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:37 GMT		7 points
	@thriceratop, so did I

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:38 GMT		9 points
	Terminator Salvation needs to make just 37.4 mil for Terminator to make this list.

	dallastim:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:39 GMT		41 points
	I'm surprised that the godfather trilogy wasn't here.

	Rick:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:39 GMT		8 points
	I saw the one with 23, and my first thought was the Carry On films. /gets coat. I can't believe i didn't manage to get James Bond.

	Liberal:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:45 GMT		2 points
	@Leo, I'm sure it will. Box Office Mojo has it at $393.6 million.

	CANDM:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:52 GMT		32 points
	Where is Back to the Future?!

	jawa88:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:56 GMT		7 points
	rofl to land before time, i'm pretty sure they still make them too. This was an awesome quiz, but i feel stupid b/c i own most of the ones i didn't get....=(

	Edge:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 04:58 GMT		3 points
	I got The Mummy but not Indiana Jones.... /self

	Joe_Ball:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:02 GMT		-4 points
	Technically, Clone Wars couldn't really be called a 'movie', per se, so Star Wars should have 6. :p

	loki1983:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:04 GMT		4 points
	@admin: thanks for updating the inflation note.

	CraigR:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:04 GMT		3 points
	wow great list of movies

	vogz:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:06 GMT		8 points
	23 movies and still can't beat out star wars wow...by a lot too

	frey553:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:06 GMT		3 points
	@Joe Ball: Why not, it had a theatrical release didn't it? Also I'd always though Bond was the number one franchise so I gotta admit I was surprised when it was second, although I feel Star Wars is a worthy opponent. Besides Bond is always gonna climb back to the top :-P unless they ever decide to stop making them that is.

	Haunter:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:10 GMT		2 points
	I thought Terminator might be there, but definitely the SAW series. by the time they're done it will be up there.

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:21 GMT		4 points
	Terminator's actually making 3 new movies (2 more after Salvation) so they'll be pretty high on the list by the time they're done....assuming the new trilogy doesn't bomb, of course.

	dummo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:22 GMT		5 points
	I forgot about so many as others have said. Inflation is the reason as to why so many recent franchises are the highest grossing so that's why classic series like Back to the Future, Jaws, Godfather are not in there etc.

	dummo:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:25 GMT		6 points
	@ MikeR, the Saw films have been great successes on low budgets, regularly taking around 80m in the US which is very good, however most blockbuster films in this list are taking well over 150 - 200 million mimimum

	shorts:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:27 GMT		4 points
	The number for Mission Impossible is wrong or out of order, probably wrong since it has the same number as another franchise on the list.

	chillicothe20:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:49 GMT		7 points
	No National Lampoon? Havent there been like 50 of those?

	motrain24:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 05:58 GMT		8 points
	Police Academy got screwed

	Mish:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 06:19 GMT		7 points
	@thriceratop same here! some real surprises on here, i never would have guessed that the two narnias beat all 6 aliens films.

	JD_Salinger:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 07:04 GMT		3 points
	God, I totally blanked. 12/26. Missed so many obvious ones.

	adal:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 07:45 GMT		12 points
	Note to self: Don't do Sporcle before you've woken up properly. 9/23. Just terrible.

	Kevin:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 07:47 GMT		5 points
	I'm really surprised Alien didn't make it. Between the trilogy and whatever they milked out of the AVP movies, I would have thought that would make it.

	davidr:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 09:02 GMT		2 points
	@frey553: James Bond would probably be on top if you adjusted for inflation. As it is, the 1960s movies are effectively worthless in this chart because a movie ticket costs ten times as many dollars now as it did then.

	davidr:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 09:04 GMT		5 points
	@adal: Tell me about it. I'm bad at movie quizzes anyway but mumble out of 26 is so bad I'm not even going to tell you my score.

	mrnrjct:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 09:44 GMT		-1 points
	I cannot believe National Lampoon has not made this. Also: the "Mummy" Series? Who are the morons that watched more than one? Fortunately I made it to the last one before seeing any of them. Any movie that involves the Abominable Snowman coming to save you must have had a serious lapse in writing and plot. Saw it in Vietnam so at least it cost me less than the current home in LA.

	epaminondus:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 11:20 GMT		-3 points
	What? No High School Musical? Theatrical releases have all the fun.

	Booger:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 12:04 GMT		5 points
	The Terminator series has grossed about $393 million. Horror movies generally have much smaller audiences than other types of movies.

	James Bond facepalm 15/26, I have never really heard of Jack Ryan, though.

	zigra:	Mar 9th, 2009 at 12:25 GMT		6 points
	Jack Ryan was the hero of Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, and a few other movies. Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck all played him (I may be missing others), so the lack of continuity makes it not easily remembered as a series (I missed it, as well;)
