Well they keep making more and more up budget movies all the time. E.T is just an example of a very high gross movie. Especially considering what year it was made. where maybe not all movies would have gotten that much money. But I have i a feeling it might be the Rocky Horror Show. Because it is the longest viewing movie of all time. It was sucssesfull with a very particular type of people. And they love it so much they Keeping going to see special viewings of it. So even after all this time that movie is still raking in money years after it's release.
The highest grossing movie of all time is Titanic, making just over 600 million. However Star Wars made 461 million in 1977, which with the rise in costs over twenty years would probably be more.
Likely Simba from The Lion King. Because even though Star Wars is famous and extremely popular, its specific characters are mostly known by fans of its story and perhaps the genre in general, while Chewbacca is only a sidekick character that doesn't even contribute much to the series. Whereas The Lion King is a family movie of numerous genres from one of the best known companies in the world; The Walt Disney Company, and the movie is the second-highest-grossing animated film of all time worldwide and the highest-grossing film of Walt Disney Animation Studios. And Simba is its main character. Thus, Simba is bound to have gained more fame as he has much larger audience and his movie extremely succesful.
Not accounting for inflation, yes. It is the highest-grossing animated film of all time and rates #6 in the list of the highest-grossing film of all time
