Some of the franchises in the franchise list overlap, resulting in some movies' grosses counting towards multiple franchises. This is not a mistake. The short explanation is that this is how the franchise deals work and how our sources do it.
On the article "1922 in film" the highest grossing movie of 1922 is listed as "The Ten Commandments" with a source cited. Is there a reason why in this article the highest grossing movie is "The Covered Wagon" for that year? 78.11.222.121 (talk) 07:01, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think you mean 1923 in film. The sources used here state that The Covered Wagon grossed $5 million and The Ten Commandments $4.2 million. I think the other list is conflating domestic and worldwide rentals. According to this list of film rentals, The Covered Wagon was the top film domestically with $3.5 million, beating the $2.5 million grossed by The Ten Commandments, and it seems both films took a further $1.5 million overseas.

Okay, now i know. The article "1923 in film" lists only revenue in the U.S. and this article lists revenue worldwide. I think this topic can be closed. Thanks. 78.11.222.121 (talk) 11:54, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
