Generous tax credits passed in 2008 have brought in a flood of TV and film production into the state of Georgia. Here are the top domestic grossing films released in movie theaters since that year. I credit www.boxofficemojo for the box office totals. (I have been regularly updating this list since 2018.)
Not surprisingly, superhero films dominate the top of the chart with no shortage of sequels and remakes. So far, 40 films have broached the magic $100 million mark domestically. The top-grossing Tyler Perry film hit $90 million.
There have been only a handful of films that would be considered “prestige” Oscar bait e.g. “Selma,” “42,” “The Blind Side,“ “Flight” and ‘First Man.”
These numbers are not adjusted for inflation.
