Here are the biggest box office hits of the 90s...
Claiming second place is Steven Spielberg’s ‘Jurassic Park.’ Released in 1993, the dinosaur adventure starred Sam Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum as visitors to a revolutionary theme park where genetically engineered dinosaurs escape control. Thanks to its original release and multiple re-releases over the years, the film has amassed more than $1.1 billion at the global box office and remains one of the most influential blockbusters ever made.
The highest-grossing movie of the 1990s by a considerable margin is James Cameron’s ‘Titanic.’ Released in 1997, the epic romance starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as two passengers who fall in love aboard the doomed ocean liner. The film earned around $1.8 billion during its initial release, but its lifetime worldwide total has since climbed to nearly $2.3 billion.
