The Golden Globes kick off awards season next month, so it’s a good time to take a look at the leading films of 2006 — in terms of dollars.
The industry projects $11.9 billion in domestic revenues for the year, a 4.2 percent increase from 2005.
Tomorrow’s WWDList will highlight the films that have grossed $100 million or more in the U.S.
The trends included successful sequels such as “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest” and “Ice Age: The Meltdown,” as well as animated films like “Cars” and “Happy Feet.”
A few of the movies are still going strong at the box office (“Borat” and “Casino Royale”), while others have left theaters for good (“Pirates” and “The Da Vinci Code”).
