Jurassic World now the third highest grossing movie of all time

Jurassic World is still taking in the dollars, and that has been enough to see it ease past The Avengers to enter that coveted top 3

We were only just writing yesterday about how close Jurassic World was to the box office haul of 2012's The Avengers, and it seems the inevitable has happened. Jurassic World is now the third highest grossing movie of all time, without pesky inflation adjustment that is.

To achieve this, Jurassic World has gobbled down $1.522 billion in global box office dollars, moving just beyond The Avengers at $1.520 billion. The figures are pretty staggering, and come in the wake of Universal's terrible lizard flick breaking several box office records both domestically and worldwide. It's a bit of a phenomenon which was never guaranteed especially so long after the 1993 original.
