Bwaha! That's awesome! But I totally don't like the first two winning movies. >__<
It's cool that all five are on it though! I've only seen 7 of the movies!

I just love those kind of lists, they're always so unintentionally funny.

It's based on online ticket sales. That wasn't mentioned in the original article.

Glad that Potter made the list as many times as it did. But, I couldn't stand COS. sorry!
But, I don't understand why FOTR did not make the list. Maybe, because it was the lowest gorssing ( If you want to call it that) of the 3 movies. Being that it was the 1st & it only got even better because of the 1st. I don't undrestand it. Quote:
Yay for HP making the list with every film, but... The list sucks. Maybe it should be renamed to "The most popular but not necessarily good films of the last couple of years"
I have to agree with you on some of that statment. From the list I am like what the hell. & who did they ask to make up this list. I mean come on Hanna M. Transformers was a good movie in all. But, 5, 10 years from now it won't be remembered. Sex & City Please. Give me a Break.

GoF came before OotP? Wow. I didn't really think that GoF would do better than OotP, seeming as it is a year or so older than OotP.
Because GOF owns OOTP. ;]
Miley Cyrus made the list?! o.o

You may not like what is popular but you can't deny the facts.
