Disney (NASDAQ:DIS)

Total Box Office $2,551,586,545 (including re-release $343.6 million) $2,207,986,545 (initial)

With a $200,000,000 investment Titanic gained 11X it’s value back in the days. It remains the movie with the largest Academy Award sweep (winning awards in every nominated category) 11 out of 17 available. Only 3 movies in history have been nominated in 14 categories, including La La Land (2016) and All About Eve (1950). Guess there ain’t gonna be any remake anytime soon, it’s just too good to surpass.
