They say the only two things that are certain, are death and taxes. Well, here’s two more: movie prices will continue to rise, and movie box office records will continue to be shattered. Of the top 25 highest grossing movies, 19 are from the last six years, only two predate 2010, and only one predates 2000. This time next year, our list may look totally different.
