Films generate income from several revenue streams, including theatrical exhibition, home video, television broadcast rights, merchandising. However, theatrical box office earnings are the primary metric for trade publications in assessing the success of a film because of the availability of the data compared to sales figures for home video and broadcast rights, but because of historical practice. Included on the list are charts of the top box office earners, a chart of high-grossing films by calendar year, a timeline showing the transition of the highest-grossing film record, a chart of the highest-grossing film franchises and series. All charts are ranked by international theatrical box office performance where possible, excluding income derived from home video, broadcasting rights, merchandise. Traditionally, war films and historical dramas have been the most popular genres, but franchise films have been among the best performers in the 21st century. There is strong interest in the superhero genre, with nine films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe featuring among the nominal top-earners.

The most successful superhero film, Avengers: Endgame, is the highest-grossing film overall on the nominal earnings chart, there are four films in total based on the Avengers comic books charting in the top twenty. Other Marvel Comics adaptations have had success with the Spider-Man and X-Men properties, while films based on Batman and Superman from DC Comics have performed well. Star Wars is represented in the nominal earnings chart with five films, while the Harry Potter, Jurassic Park and Pirates of the Caribbean franchises feature prominently. Avatar, in second place on the nominal chart, is the highest-grossing film, not a sequel or an adaptation of a pre-existing property. Animated family films have performed well, with Disney films enjoying lucrative re-releases prior to the home-video era. Disney enjoyed success with films such as Frozen I and II, The Lion King, as well as its Pixar brand, of which Incredibles 2, Toy Story 3 and 4, Finding Dory have been the best performers. Beyond Disney and Pixar animation, the Despicable Me, Ice Age series have met with the most success.

While inflation has eroded away the achievements of most films from the 1960s and 1970s, there are franchises originating from that period that are still active. Besides the Star Wars and Superman franchises, James Bond and Star Trek films are still being released periodically; some of the older films that held the record of highest-grossing film still have respectable grosses by today's standards, but no longer compete numerically against today's top-earners in an era of much higher individual ticket prices. When properly adjusted for inflation, however, on that comparative scale Gone with the Wind—which was the highest-grossing film outright for twenty-five years—is still the highest-grossing film of all time. All grosses on the list are expressed in U. S. dollars at their nominal value, except where stated otherwise. With a worldwide box-office gross of over $2.797 billion, Avengers: Endgame is proclaimed to be the "highest-grossing" film, but such claims refer to theatrical revenues only and do not take into account home video and television income, which can form a significant portion of a film's earnings.

Once revenue from home entertainment is factored in it is not clear which film is the most successful. Titanic earned $1.2 billion from video and DVD sales and rentals, in addition to the $2.2 billion it grossed in theaters. While complete sales data are not available for Avatar, it earned $345 million from the sale of sixteen million DVD and Blu-ray units in North America, sold a total of thirty million DVD and Blu-ray units worldwide. After home video income is accounted for, both films have earned over $3 billion each. Television broadcast rights will substantially add to a film's earnings, with a film earning as much as 20–25% of its theatrical box-office for a couple of television runs on top of pay-per-view revenues; when a film is exploitable as a commercial property, its ancillary revenues can dwarf its income from direct film sales. The Lion King earned over $2 billion in box-office and home video sales, but this pales in comparison to the $8 billion earned at box offices around the world by the stage adaptation.

Merchandising can be lucrative too: The Lion King sold $3 billion of merchandise, while Pixar's Cars—which earned $462 million in theatrical revenues and was only a modest hit by comparison to other Pixar films—generated global merchandise sales of over $8 billion in the five years after its 2006 release. Pixar had another huge hit with Toy Story 3, which generated $10 billion in merchandise retail sales in addition to the $1 billion it earned at the box office. On this chart, films are ranked by the revenues from theatrical exhibition at their nominal value, along with the highest positions they attained. Five films in total have grossed in excess of $2 billion worldwide, with Avengers: Endgame ranked in the top position. All of the films have had a theatrical run in the 21st century, films that have not played during this period do not appear on the chart because of ticket-price inflation, population size and ticket purchasing trends not being considered; because of the long-term effects of inflation, notably the significant increase of movie theater ticket price
