Rhestr ffilmiau â'r elw mwyaf
Daliodd Gone with the Wind y record am y ffilm mwyaf proffidiol am ddau-ddeg-pump mlynedd, ac ar ôl addasu ar gyfer chwyddiant, mae wedi creu mwy o elw nag unrhyw ffilm arall erioed.
Enghraifft o'r canlynolerthygl sydd hefyd yn rhestr Edit this on Wikidata

Dyma restr o ffilmiau sydd wedi gwneud yr elw (crynswth) mwyaf.

Mae ffilmiau'n cynhyrchu incwm o sawl ffrwd refeniw, gan gynnwys arddangosfa theatrig, fideo cartref, hawliau darlledu teledu, a marchnata. Fodd bynnag, enillion swyddfa docynnau theatrig yw'r prif fetrig ar gyfer cyhoeddiadau masnach wrth asesu llwyddiant ffilm, yn bennaf oherwydd argaeledd y data o'i gymharu â ffigurau gwerthu ar gyfer fideo cartref a hawliau darlledu, ond hefyd oherwydd arfer hanesyddol. Ar y rhestr mae siartiau o enillwyr uchaf y swyddfa docynnau (wedi'u rhestru yn ôl gwerth enwol a gwir werth eu refeniw). Mae hefyd siart o ffilmiau â chrynswth mwyaf yn ôl blwyddyn galendr, llinell amser sy'n dangos trawsnewidiad y record ffilm â'r cyfanswm mwyaf, a siart o'r masnachfreintiau a'r cyfresi ffilm â'r crynswth mwyaf. Mae'r holl siartiau'n cael eu rhestru yn ôl perfformiad swyddfa docynnau theatraidd ryngwladol lle bo modd, heb gynnwys incwm sy'n deillio o fideo cartref, hawliau darlledu, a nwyddau.

Yn draddodiadol, ffilmiau rhyfel, sioeau cerdd, a dramâu hanesyddol fu'r genres mwyaf poblogaidd, ond mae ffilmiau masnachfraint wedi bod ymhlith perfformwyr gorau'r 21ain ganrif. Mae diddordeb mawr yn y genre archarwyr, gyda deg ffilm yn y Bydysawd Sinematig Marvel yn ymddangos ymhlith yr enillwyr enwol. Y ffilm archarwr fwyaf llwyddiannus, Avengers: Endgame, hefyd yw'r ail ffilm â'r cynnydd mwyaf ar y "siart enillion enwol", ac mae pedair ffilm i gyd yn seiliedig ar y llyfrau comig Avengers sy'n rhestru yn yr ugain uchaf. Mae addasiadau Marvel Comics eraill hefyd wedi cael llwyddiant gyda'r eiddo Spider-Man ac X-Men, tra bod ffilmiau sy'n seiliedig ar Batman a Superman o DC Comics wedi perfformio'n dda ar y cyfan. Cynrychiolir Star Wars hefyd yn y "siart enillion enwol" gyda phum ffilm, tra bod masnachfreintiau Harry Potter, Jurassic Park a Pirates of the Caribbean yn cael lle amlwg. Er bod y "siart enillion enwol" yn cael ei ddominyddu gan ffilmiau wedi'u haddasu o briodweddau a dilyniannau sy'n bodoli eisoes, Avatar sydd ar y brig, sef ffilm wreiddiol. Mae ffilmiau teulu animeiddiedig wedi perfformio'n gyson o dda, gyda ffilmiau Disney yn mwynhau ail-rhyddhau proffidiol cyn yr oes fideo cartref. Mwynhaodd Disney lwyddiant diweddarach hefyd gyda ffilmiau fel Frozen I a II, Zootopia, a The Lion King ( gyda'i ail-wneud wedi'i animeiddio â chyfrifiadur fel y ffilm animeiddiedig â'r cynnydd mwyaf), yn ogystal â'i frand Pixar, y mae Incredibles 2 ohono, Toy Story 3 a 4, a Finding Dory fu'r perfformwyr gorau. Y tu hwnt i animeiddiadau Disney a Pixar, mae'r gyfres Despicable Me, Shrek, ac Ice Age wedi cael y llwyddiant mwyaf.

Er bod chwyddiant wedi erydu cyflawniadau'r rhan fwyaf o ffilmiau o'r 1950au, 1960au, a'r 1970au, mae masnachfreintiau sy'n tarddu o'r cyfnod hwnnw sy'n dal i fod yn weithredol. Heblaw am fasnachfreintiau Star Wars a Superman, mae ffilmiau James Bond a Godzilla yn dal i gael eu rhyddhau o bryd i'w gilydd; mae pob un o'r pedwar ymhlith y masnachfreintiau â'r cynnydd mwyaf. Mae rhai o'r ffilmiau hŷn a ddaliodd y record o ran ffilmiau â'r enillion uchaf yn dal i fod â chrynswth parchus yn ôl safonau heddiw, ond nid ydynt bellach yn cystadlu'n rhifiadol yn erbyn enillwyr heddiw mewn cyfnod o brisiau tocynnau unigol llawer uwch. Pan gaiff y prisiau hynny eu haddasu ar gyfer chwyddiant, fodd bynnag, yna Gone with the Wind —sef y ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf yn llwyr ers pum mlynedd ar hugain—yw’r ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf erioed o hyd. Mynegir yr holl grosiau ar y rhestr mewn doleri'r UD yn ôl eu gwerth enwol, ac eithrio lle nodir yn wahanol.


Ffilmiau â'r crynswth uchaf

[golygu | golygu cod]

Ysgrifennwyd a chyfarwyddwyd Avatar, y ffilm â'r crynswth mwyaf, gan James Cameron.

Gyda chrynswth swyddfa docynnau fyd-eang o dros $2.9 biliwn, mae Avatar yn cael ei gyhoeddi fel y ffilm "crynswth uchaf", ond mae hawliadau o'r fath fel arfer yn cyfeirio at refeniw theatrig yn unig ac nid ydynt yn ystyried incwm fideo a theledu cartref, a all ffurfio cyfran sylweddol o enillion ffilm. Unwaith y bydd refeniw o adloniant cartref wedi'i gynnwys, nid yw'n glir ar unwaith pa ffilm yw'r mwyaf llwyddiannus. Enillodd Titanic $1.2 biliwn o werthiannau a rhenti fideo a DVD, yn ychwanegol at y $2.2 biliwn wedi'i grosio mewn theatrau. Er nad oes data gwerthiant cyflawn ar gael ar gyfer Avatar, enillodd $345 miliwn o werthiant un ar bymtheg miliwn o unedau DVD a Blu-ray yng Ngogledd America,[1] ac yn y pen draw gwerthwyd cyfanswm o ddeg ar hugain miliwn o unedau DVD a Blu-ray ledled y byd.[2] Ar ôl cyfrif am incwm fideo cartref, mae'r ddwy ffilm wedi ennill dros $3 biliwn yr un. Bydd hawliau darlledu teledu hefyd yn ychwanegu'n sylweddol at enillion ffilm, gyda ffilm yn aml yn ennill cymaint ag 20–25% o'i swyddfa docynnau theatrig am ychydig o rediadau teledu ar ben refeniw talu-wrth- wylio;[3] Enillodd Titanic $55 arall miliwn o hawliau darlledu NBC a HBO,sy'n cyfateb i tua 9% o'i gros Gogledd America.

Pan fo ffilm yn fasnachol iawn, gall ei refeniw ategol (e.e tegannau, sioeau gerdd) fod llawer mwy na refeniw o werthiannau y ffilm ei hun.[4] Er enghraifft, enillodd y Lion King (1994) dros $2 biliwn mewn gwerthiannau swyddfa docynnau a fideos cartref, ond $8 biliwn a enillwyd mewn swyddfeydd tocynnau ledled y byd gan yr addasiad llwyfan.[5] Gall marchnata fod yn hynod broffidiol hefyd: gwerthodd y Lion King $3 biliwn o nwyddau,[6] ond enillodd Cars werthiannau nwyddau byd-eang o dros $8 biliwn yn y pum mlynedd ar ôl ei ryddhau yn 2006.[7][8] Dim ond $462 miliwn mewn enillodd Cars drwy refeniw theatrig, mewn cymhariaeth.[9]

Cafodd Pixar ergyd enfawr arall gyda Toy Story 3, a gynhyrchodd bron i $10 biliwn mewn gwerthiannau manwerthu nwyddau yn ychwanegol at y $1 biliwn a enillwyd yn y swyddfa docynnau.[10]

Ar y siart hwn, mae ffilmiau'n cael eu rhestru yn ôl y refeniw o arddangosfa theatrig yn ôl eu gwerth enwol, ynghyd â'r swyddi uchaf a gyrhaeddwyd ganddynt. Mae cyfanswm o bum ffilm wedi creu cyfanswm o fwy na $2 biliwn ledled y byd, gydag Avatar yn y safle uchaf. Mae pob un o'r ffilmiau wedi cael rhediad theatrig (gan gynnwys ail-rhyddhau) yn yr 21ain ganrif. Nid yw ffilmiau nad tu hwnt i'r cyfnod hwn yn ymddangos ar y siart oherwydd nad yw chwyddiant pris tocyn, maint y boblogaeth a thueddiadau prynu tocynnau yn cael eu hystyried.

Ffilmiau â'r crynswth mwyaf ar ôl addasiad chwyddiant

[golygu | golygu cod]
A map of the world with different regions colored in correlating to inflation rates
Mae cyfraddau chwyddiant ledled y byd yn amrywio, gan gymhlethu addasiad chwyddiant.

Oherwydd effeithiau hirdymor chwyddiant, yn arbennig y cynnydd sylweddol mewn prisiau tocynnau theatr ffilm, mae'r rhestr heb ei haddasu ar gyfer chwyddiant yn rhoi llawer mwy o bwysau i ffilmiau diweddarach.[11] Mae’r rhestr heb ei haddasu, er ei bod yn gyffredin yn y wasg, felly’n ddiystyr i raddau helaeth ar gyfer cymharu ffilmiau sydd wedi’u gwahanu’n eang mewn amser, gan na fydd llawer o ffilmiau o gyfnodau cynharach byth yn ymddangos ar restr fodern heb ei haddasu, er gwaethaf cyflawni llwyddiant masnachol uwch pan gânt eu haddasu ar gyfer cynnydd mewn prisiau.[12] I wneud iawn am ostyngiad yng ngwerth yr arian cyfred, mae rhai siartiau'n gwneud addasiadau ar gyfer chwyddiant, ond nid yw hyd yn oed yr arfer hwn yn mynd i'r afael yn llawn â'r mater, gan nad yw prisiau tocynnau a chwyddiant o reidrwydd yn gyfochrog â'i gilydd. Er enghraifft, ym 1970, costiodd tocynnau $1.55 neu tua $6.68 mewn doleri 2004 a addaswyd gan chwyddiant; erbyn 1980, roedd prisiau wedi codi i tua $2.69, gostyngiad i $5.50 mewn doleri 2004 a addaswyd gan chwyddiant. Mae prisiau tocynnau hefyd wedi codi ar wahanol gyfraddau chwyddiant ledled y byd, gan gymhlethu ymhellach y broses o addasu grosiau ledled y byd.[11]

Cymhlethdod arall yw rhyddhau mewn fformatau lluosog y codir prisiau tocynnau gwahanol amdanynt. Un enghraifft nodedig o'r ffenomen hon yw Avatar, a ryddhawyd hefyd mewn 3D ac IMAX: roedd bron i ddwy ran o dair o'r tocynnau ar gyfer y ffilm honno ar gyfer dangosiadau 3D gyda phris cyfartalog o $10, ac roedd tua un rhan o chwech ar gyfer dangosiadau IMAX gyda chyfartaledd pris dros $14.50, o'i gymharu â phris cyfartalog 2010 o $7.61 ar gyfer ffilmiau 2D.[13] Mae ffactorau cymdeithasol ac economaidd megis newid yn y boblogaeth[14] a thwf marchnadoedd rhyngwladol[15][16][17] hefyd yn cael effaith ar nifer y bobl sy'n prynu tocynnau theatr, ynghyd â demograffeg y gynulleidfa lle mae rhai ffilmiau'n gwerthu llawer uwch. cyfran y tocynnau plant am bris gostyngol, neu berfformio'n well mewn dinasoedd mawr lle mae tocynnau'n costio mwy.[12]

Mae'r system fesur ar gyfer mesur llwyddiant ffilm yn seiliedig ar grosiau heb eu haddasu, yn bennaf oherwydd yn hanesyddol dyma'r ffordd y mae wedi'i wneud erioed oherwydd arferion y diwydiant ffilm: mae derbynebau'r swyddfa docynnau yn cael eu casglu gan theatrau a'u trosglwyddo i'r dosbarthwr, sydd yn ei dro yn eu rhyddhau i'r cyfryngau.[18] Mae trosi i system fwy cynrychioliadol sy'n cyfrif gwerthiant tocynnau yn hytrach na gros hefyd yn llawn problemau oherwydd yr unig ddata sydd ar gael ar gyfer ffilmiau hŷn yw'r cyfansymiau gwerthiant.[14] Gan fod y diwydiant lluniau cynnig yn canolbwyntio'n fawr ar farchnata ffilmiau a ryddhawyd ar hyn o bryd, mae ffigurau heb eu haddasu bob amser yn cael eu defnyddio mewn ymgyrchoedd marchnata fel y gall ffilmiau mawr newydd gyflawni safle gwerthiant uchel yn llawer haws, a thrwy hynny gael eu hyrwyddo fel "ffilm orau erioed", [19] felly nid oes llawer o gymhelliant i newid i ddadansoddiad mwy cadarn o safbwynt marchnata neu hyd yn oed sy'n werth newyddion.[18]

Er gwaethaf yr anawsterau cynhenid wrth gyfrif am chwyddiant, gwnaed sawl ymgais. Mae amcangyfrifon yn dibynnu ar y mynegai prisiau a ddefnyddir i addasu’r grosiau,[19] a gall y cyfraddau cyfnewid a ddefnyddir i drosi rhwng arian cyfred hefyd effeithio ar y cyfrifiadau, a gall y ddau ohonynt gael effaith ar safleoedd terfynol rhestr wedi’i haddasu ar gyfer chwyddiant. Ystyrir yn gyffredinol mai Gone with the Wind — a ryddhawyd gyntaf yn 1939—yw’r ffilm fwyaf llwyddiannus, gyda Guinness World Records yn 2014 yn amcangyfrif ei gros byd-eang wedi’i addasu ar $3.4 biliwn. Mae amcangyfrifon ' gyfer gros wedi’i addasu Gone with the Wind wedi amrywio’n sylweddol: amcangyfrifodd ei berchennog, Turner Entertainment, ei enillion wedi’u haddasu ar $3.3 biliwn yn 2007, ychydig flynyddoedd ynghynt nag amcangyfrif Guinness ;[20] mae amcangyfrifon eraill yn disgyn y naill ochr a'r llall i'r swm hwn, gydag un yn rhoi ei gros ychydig o dan $3 biliwn yn 2010,[21] tra darparodd un arall ffigur amgen o $3.8 biliwn yn 2006.[22] Mae pa ffilm sydd â chystadleuydd agosaf Gone with the Wind ' dibynnu ar y set o ffigurau a ddefnyddiwyd: roedd gan Guinness Avatar yn ail gyda $3 biliwn, tra bod amcangyfrifon eraill yn gweld Titanic yn ail gydag enillion byd-eang rhediad cyntaf o bron i $2.9 biliwn ar brisiau 2010.[21]

Ffilmiau â'r crynswth mwyaf wrth flwyddyn

[golygu | golygu cod]
A portrait of a bespectacled middle aged man.
Ffilmiau a gyfarwyddwyd gan Steven Spielberg fu’r ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf o’r flwyddyn chwe gwaith, ac ar dri achlysur bu’r ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf erioed.

Roedd chwaeth y gynulleidfa yn weddol eclectig yn ystod yr 20fed ganrif, ond daeth nifer o dueddiadau i'r amlwg. Yn ystod y cyfnod tawel, roedd ffilmiau gyda themâu rhyfel yn boblogaidd gyda chynulleidfaoedd, gyda The Birth of a Nation ( Rhyfel Cartref America ), The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, The Big Parade ac Wings ( y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf i gyd ) yn dod yn ffilmiau mwyaf llwyddiannus yn eu blynyddoedd rhyddhau priodol, gyda'r duedd yn dod i ben gyda All Quiet ar Ffrynt y Gorllewin yn 1930. Gyda dyfodiad sain ym 1927, cymerodd y sioe gerdd — y genre sydd yn y sefyllfa orau i arddangos y dechnoleg newydd — drosodd fel y math mwyaf poblogaidd o ffilm gyda chynulleidfaoedd, gyda 1928 a 1929 ill dau yn cael eu harbennu gan ffilmiau cerddorol. Parhaodd y genre i berfformio'n gryf yn y 1930au, ond ar ddechrau'r Ail Ryfel Byd gwelwyd ffilmiau ar thema rhyfel yn dominyddu eto yn ystod y cyfnod hwn, gan ddechrau gyda Gone with the Wind (Rhyfel Cartref America) yn 1939, a gorffen gyda The Best Years of Our Lives (Yr Ail Ryfel Byd) yn 1946. Gwelodd Samson a Delilah (1949) ddechrau tuedd o ddramâu hanesyddol cynyddol ddrud a osodwyd yn ystod yr Hen Rufain / cyfnod beiblaidd trwy gydol y 1950au wrth i sinema gystadlu â theledu am gynulleidfaoedd,[24] gyda Quo Vadis, The Robe, The Ten Commandments, Ben -Hur a Spartacus i gyd yn dod yn ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf yn y flwyddyn yn ystod y rhyddhau cychwynnol, cyn i’r genre ddechrau pylu ar ôl sawl methiant amlwg.[25] Roedd llwyddiant White Christmas a South Pacific yn y 1950au yn rhagfynegi dychweliad y sioe gerdd yn y 1960au gyda West Side Story, Mary Poppins, My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music a Funny Girl i gyd ymhlith ffilmiau gorau'r ddegawd. Gwelodd y 1970au newid yn chwaeth y gynulleidfa i ffilmiau cysyniad uchel, gyda chwe ffilm o'r fath wedi'u gwneud naill ai gan George Lucas neu Steven Spielberg ar frig y siart yn ystod yr 1980au. Mae'r 21ain ganrif wedi gweld dibyniaeth gynyddol ar fasnachfreintiau ac addasiadau, gyda'r goruchafiaeth swyddfa docynnau o ffilmiau'n seiliedig ar eiddo deallusol a oedd yn bodoli eisoes ar y lefelau uchaf erioed.[26]

Arloesodd The Birth of a Nation lawer o'r technegau a ddefnyddir mewn gwneud ffilmiau heddiw, gan ddod y ffilm fwyaf llwyddiannus a wnaed erioed ar adeg ei rhyddhau.

Mae o leiaf un ar ddeg o ffilmiau wedi dal y record o ‘ffilm gyda’r gwerth mwyaf’ ers i The Birth of a Nation ddod i’r brig ym 1915. Treuliodd The Birth of a Nation a Gone with the Wind ill dau bum mlynedd ar hugain yn olynol fel y grosser uchaf, gyda ffilmiau a gyfarwyddwyd gan Steven Spielberg a James Cameron yn dal y record ar dri achlysur yr un. Daeth Spielberg y cyfarwyddwr cyntaf i dorri ei record ei hun pan oddiweddodd Jurassic Park ET, ac efelychodd Cameron y gamp pan dorrodd Avatar y record a osodwyd gan Titanic. Pan ddaeth i'r brig yn 2019, Avengers: Endgame oedd y dilyniant cyntaf i ddal y record o ennill y mwyaf o ffilmiau, ac wrth wneud hynny daeth tri deg chwech o flynyddoedd o oruchafiaeth Spielberg/Cameron i ben cyn i Avatar adennill y safle uchaf ddwy flynedd yn ddiweddarach. yn 2021 ar ôl ei ail-ryddhau.

Mae rhai ffynonellau'n honni bod The Big Parade wedi disodli The Birth of a Nation fel ffilm â'r elw mwyaf, gan gael ei disodli yn y pen draw gan Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, a gafodd ei thrawsfeddiannu'n gyflym gan Gone with the Wind.[31] Nid yw'r union ffigurau'n hysbys ar gyfer The Birth of a Nation, ond mae cofnodion cyfoes yn rhoi ei enillion byd-eang ar $5.2 miliwn o 1919.[32] Gohiriwyd ei ryddhau rhyngwladol gan y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf, ac ni chafodd ei ryddhau mewn llawer o diriogaethau tramor tan y 1920au; ynghyd ag ail-rhyddhau pellach yn yr Unol Daleithiau, ei $10 miliwn o enillion fel yr adroddwyd gan Variety yn 1932 yn gyson â'r ffigur cynharach. Ar yr adeg hon, roedd gan Variety Genedigaeth Cenedl o flaen The Big Parade ($6,400,000) o hyd ar renti dosbarthwyr ac—os yw ei amcangyfrif yn gywir— ni fyddai Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ($8,500,000)[33] wedi ennill digon ar ei rhediad theatrig cyntaf i gymryd y record;[34] er mai hwn fyddai'r 'talkie' â'r cynnydd mwyaf,[35] gan ddisodli The Singing Fool ($5,900,000).[36] Er bod doethineb derbyniedig yn awgrymu ei bod yn annhebygol y cafodd The Birth of a Nation ei goddiweddyd erioed gan ffilm cyfnod mud,[37] byddai’r record yn disgyn i Ben-Hur ($9,386,000) ym 1925 pe bai The Birth of a Nation yn ennill gryn dipyn yn llai na’r hyn a amcangyfrifwyd. gros.[38] Yn ogystal â'i enillion rhent gros trwy arddangosfa gyhoeddus, chwaraeodd The Birth of a Nation mewn nifer fawr o ymrwymiadau preifat, clwb a sefydliadol nad yw ffigurau ar gael ar eu cyfer.[39] Roedd yn hynod boblogaidd gyda’r Ku Klux Klan a’i defnyddiodd i ysgogi recriwtio,[40] ac ar un adeg amcangyfrifodd Variety mai cyfanswm ei enillion oedd tua $50. miliwn.[41] Er gwaethaf tynnu’r hawliad yn ôl yn ddiweddarach, mae’r swm wedi’i adrodd yn eang er nad yw erioed wedi’i gadarnhau.[32] Er y derbynnir yn gyffredinol bod Gone with the Wind wedi cymryd drosodd y record o ffilm â’r cynnydd mwyaf wrth ei rhyddhau am y tro cyntaf—sy’n wir o ran arddangosfa gyhoeddus—mae’n debygol na wnaeth oddiweddyd The Birth of a Nation mewn cyfanswm refeniw tan a yn ddiweddarach o lawer, gan ei fod yn dal i gael ei adrodd fel yr enillydd uchaf hyd at y 1960au.[39] Mae’n bosibl bod Gone with the Wind ei hun wedi’i goddiweddyd am gyfnod byr gan The Ten Commandments (1956), a gaeodd ddiwedd 1960 gyda rhenti byd-eang o $58–60 miliwn[42][43] o'i gymharu â Gone with the Wind ' s $59 miliwn;[44] pe bai'n hawlio'r man uchaf roedd ei ddeiliadaeth yno yn fyrhoedlog, gan i Gone with the Wind gael ei ail-ryddhau'r flwyddyn ganlynol a chynyddu ei enillion i $67 miliwn. Yn dibynnu ar ba mor gywir yw'r amcangyfrifon, efallai bod ail-wneud Ben-Hur ym 1959 hefyd wedi dal y record o Gone with the Wind : erbyn diwedd 1961 roedd wedi ennill $47 miliwn ledled y byd,[45] ac erbyn 1963 roedd yn llusgo Gone with the Wind o ddim ond $2 miliwn gyda derbyniadau rhyngwladol o $65 miliwn,[46] yn y pen draw yn ennill $66 miliwn o'i ryddhad cychwynnol.[47]

Dywedir bod ffilm bornograffig 1972 Deep Throat wedi ennill cymaint â $600 miliwn, ffigur a allai fod wedi'i chwyddo gan gangsters mewn cynlluniau gwyngalchu arian.

Ffilm arall yr honnir iddi fod â'r grosser uchaf yw'r ffilm bornograffig o 1972, Deep Throat. Ym 1984, tystiodd Linda Lovelace i Is-bwyllgor Barnwriaeth Senedd yr Unol Daleithiau ar gyfiawnder ieuenctid fod y ffilm wedi ennill $600 miliwn;[48] mae'r ffigwr hwn wedi bod yn destun llawer o ddyfalu, oherwydd os yw'n gywir yna byddai'r ffilm wedi gwneud mwy o arian na Star Wars, a gorffen y 1970au fel y ffilm â'r elw mwyaf. Y brif ddadl yn erbyn y ffigur hwn yw nad oedd ganddo ryddhad digon eang i gynnal y math o symiau y byddai eu hangen er mwyn iddo grosio’r swm hwn yn y pen draw.[49] Nid yw'r union ffigurau'n hysbys, ond dangosodd tystiolaeth mewn treial ffederal ym 1976 - tua phedair blynedd ar ôl i'r ffilm gael ei rhyddhau - fod y ffilm wedi cronni dros $25. miliwn.[50] Mae Roger Ebert wedi rhesymu ei fod o bosibl wedi ennill cymaint â $600 miliwn ar bapur, gan fod mobsters yn berchen ar y rhan fwyaf o'r theatrau ffilm i oedolion yn ystod y cyfnod hwn ac y byddent yn gwyngalchu incwm o gyffuriau a phuteindra drwyddynt, felly mae'n debyg y byddai wedi chwyddo'r derbyniadau swyddfa docynnau ar gyfer y ffilm.[51]

Cynyddodd Geni Cenedl, Gone with the Wind, The Godfather, Jaws, Star Wars, ET, ac Avatar eu record gros gydag ail-ryddhau. Mae'r crynswth o'u rhediadau theatrig gwreiddiol wedi'u cynnwys yma ynghyd â chyfansymiau o ail-rhyddhau hyd at y pwynt iddynt golli'r record; felly mae'r cyfanswm ar gyfer The Birth of a Nation yn cynnwys incwm o'i hailgyhoeddi hyd at 1940; mae'r cyfanswm ar gyfer Star Wars yn cynnwys refeniw o ailgyhoeddiadau diwedd y 1970au a dechrau'r 1980au ond nid o Argraffiad Arbennig 1997; mae’r cyfanswm ar gyfer ET yn ymgorffori ei grynswth o ailgyhoeddi 1985 ond nid o 2002. Mae'r cyfanswm ar gyfer ymddangosiad cyntaf Avatar ar y siart yn cynnwys refeniw o Argraffiad Arbennig 2010, sy'n cynrychioli ei holl enillion hyd at y pwynt y rhoddodd y gorau i'r record, tra bod ei ail ymddangosiad hefyd yn ymgorffori refeniw o ail-rhyddhau 2020 yn Asia. -Rhanbarth y Môr Tawel yn ogystal ag ail-ryddhau 2021 yn Tsieina a'i helpodd i adennill y record. Yn yr un modd mae Gone with the Wind yn cael ei gynrychioli ddwywaith ar y siart: mae cofnod 1940 yn cynnwys enillion o’i ryddhad cyfnodol 1939–1942 ( sioe deithiol / rhyddhau cyffredinol / ail rediad ).[52]

Masnachfreintiau a chyfresi ffilm â'r cynnydd mwyaf

[golygu | golygu cod]

Cyn 2000, dim ond saith cyfres ffilm oedd wedi ennill dros $1 biliwn yn y swyddfa docynnau: James Bond,[66] Star Wars,[67] Indiana Jones,[68] Rocky,[69][70][71] Batman,[72] Jurassic Park,[73] a Star Trek.[74] Ers troad y ganrif, mae’r nifer hwnnw wedi cynyddu i dros wyth deg (heb gynnwys trawiadau untro fel Titanic a Zootopia ).[75] Mae hyn yn rhannol oherwydd chwyddiant a thwf y farchnad, ond mae hefyd oherwydd bod Hollywood wedi mabwysiadu'r model masnachfraint : ffilmiau sydd â chydnabyddiaeth brand fel eu bod yn seiliedig ar ffynhonnell lenyddol adnabyddus neu gymeriad sefydledig. Mae'r fethodoleg yn seiliedig ar y cysyniad y gall ffilmiau sy'n gysylltiedig â phethau y mae cynulleidfaoedd eisoes yn gyfarwydd â nhw gael eu marchnata'n fwy effeithiol iddynt, ac fel y cyfryw fe'u gelwir yn ffilmiau "wedi'u gwerthu ymlaen llaw" o fewn y diwydiant.[76]

Fel arfer diffinnir rhyddfraint fel o leiaf ddau waith sy'n deillio o eiddo deallusol cyffredin. Yn draddodiadol, mae gan y gwaith berthynas tautolegol â'r eiddo, ond nid yw hyn yn rhagofyniad. Un o brif elfennau parhaol y model masnachfraint yw'r cysyniad o'r gorgyffwrdd, y gellir ei ddiffinio fel "stori lle mae cymeriadau neu gysyniadau o ddau neu fwy o destunau neu gyfresi o destunau arwahanol yn cyfarfod".[77] Un o ganlyniadau gorgyffwrdd yw y gall eiddo deallusol gael ei ddefnyddio gan fwy nag un fasnachfraint. Er enghraifft, mae Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice yn perthyn nid yn unig i fasnachfreintiau Batman a Superman, ond hefyd i'r Bydysawd Estynedig DC, sy'n fydysawd a rennir. Mae bydysawd a rennir yn fath arbennig o groesfan lle mae nifer o gymeriadau o ystod eang o weithiau ffuglen yn dod i ben yn rhannu byd ffuglen.[78]

Ffilmiau Star Wars yw'r gyfres sy'n ennill y cyfanswm mwyaf yn seiliedig ar un eiddo, gan ennill dros $10 biliwn yn y swyddfa docynnau (er bod ffilmiau Eon James Bond wedi ennill dros $19 biliwn i gyd o'i addasu i brisiau cyfredol). [80] Os cynhwysir incwm atodol o nwyddau, yna Star Wars yw'r eiddo mwyaf proffidiol;[81] mae'n dal record byd Guinness am y "franchise marsiandïaeth ffilm fwyaf llwyddiannus" ac roedd yn werth £19.51 biliwn yn 2012 (tua $30 biliwn).[82][83]

ISBN 978-0-7100-9730-9. Various accounts have cited $15 to $18 million profits during the first few years of release, while in a letter to a potential investor in the proposed sound version, Aitken noted that a $15 to $18 million box-office gross was a 'conservative estimate'. For years Variety has listed The Birth of a Nation's total rental at $50 million. (This reflects the total amount paid to the distributor, not box-office gross.) This 'trade legend' has finally been acknowledged by Variety as a 'whopper myth', and the amount has been revised to $5 million. That figure seems far more feasible, as reports of earnings in the Griffith collection list gross receipts for 1915–1919 at slightly more than $5.2 million (including foreign distribution) and total earnings after deducting general office expenses, but not royalties, at about $2 million.

Since it's rarely seen today, The Singing Fool is frequently confused with The Jazz Singer; although besides Jolson and a pervasively maudlin air the two have little in common. In the earlier film Jolson was inordinately attached to his mother and sang "Mammy"; here the fixation was on his young son, and "Sonny Boy" became an enormous hit. So did the film, which amassed a stunning world-wide gross of $5.9 million...Some sources give it as the highest gross of any film in its initial release prior to Gone with the Wind. This is probably overstating it—MGM's records show that Ben-Hur and The Big Parade grossed more, and no one knows just how much The Birth of a Nation brought in. Still, by the standards of the time it's an amazing amount.

Putting The Birth of a Nation in fifth place is open to question, since it is generally conceded to be the top-grossing film of all time. However, it has always been difficult to obtain reliable box-office figures for this film, and it may have been even more difficult in the mid-1930s. After listing it until the mid-1970s as the top-grosser, though finding it impossible to quote exact figures, Variety, the trade journal, suddenly repudiated the claim but without giving specific details or reasons. On the basis of the number of paid admissions, and continuous exhibition, its number one position seems justified.

At the end of the 1941 general release, MGM decided to withdraw GWTW again. The prints were battered, but the studio believed one final fling for GWTW was possible. The film returned to movie theaters for the third time in the spring of 1942 and stayed in release until late 1943... When MGM finally pulled the film from exhibition, all worn-out prints were destroyed, and GWTW was at last declared out of circulation. MGM, which by then had sole ownership of the film, announced that GWTW had grossed over $32 million.

The Birth of a Nation, costing an unprecedented and, many believed, thoroughly foolhardy $110,000, eventually returned $20 million and more. The actual figure is hard to calculate because the film was distributed on a "states' rights" basis in which licenses to show the film were sold outright. The actual cash generated by The Birth of a Nation may have been as much as $50 million to $100 million, an almost inconceivable amount for such an early film.

Various accounts have cited $15 to $18 million profits during the first few years of release, while in a letter to a potential investor in the proposed sound version, Aitken noted that a $15 to $18 million box-office gross was a 'conservative estimate'. For years Variety has listed The Birth of a Nation's total rental at $50 million. (This reflects the total amount paid to the distributor, not box-office gross.) This 'trade legend' has finally been acknowledged by Variety as a 'whopper myth', and the amount has been revised to $5 million. That figure seems far more feasible, as reports of earnings in the Griffith collection list gross receipts for 1915–1919 at slightly more than $5.2 million (including foreign distribution) and total earnings after deducting general office expenses, but not royalties, at about $2 million.

    • Way Down East: p. 52. "D.W. Griffith's Way Down East (1920) was projected to return rentals of $4,000,000 on an $800,000 negative. This figure was based on the amounts earned from its roadshow run, coupled with its playoff in the rest of the country's theaters. Griffith had originally placed the potential film rental at $3,000,000 but, because of the success of the various roadshows that were running the $4,000,000 total was expected. The film showed a profit of $615,736 after just 23 weeks of release on a gross of $2,179,613."
    • What Price Glory?: p. 112. "What Price Glory hit the jackpot with massive world rentals of $2,429,000, the highest figure in the history of the company. Since it was also the most expensive production of the year at $817,000 the profit was still a healthy $796,000..."
    • Cavalcade: p. 170. "The actual cost of Cavalcade was $1,116,000 and it was most definitely not guaranteed a success. In fact, if its foreign grosses followed the usual 40 percent of domestic returns, the film would have lost money. In a turnaround, the foreign gross was almost double the $1,000,000 domestic take to reach total world rentals of $3,000,000 and Fox's largest profit of the year at $664,000."
    • State Fair: p. 170. "State Fair did turn out to be a substantial hit with the help of Janet Gaynor boosting Will Rogers back to the level of money-making star. Its prestige engagements helped raked in a total $1,208,000 in domestic rentals. Surprisingly, in foreign countries unfamiliar with state fairs, it still earned a respectable $429,000. With its total rentals, the film ended up showing a $398,000 profit."

Its production costs have been estimated at "something between $600,000 and $800,000." Variety estimated its worldwide gross at $4 million in 1925 and at $5 million in 1944; in 1991, it estimated its cumulative domestic rentals at $3,800,000."

Once the exploitation and release prints were taken into account, Robin Hood cost about $1,400,000—exceeding both Intolerance ($700,000) and the celebrated "million dollar movie" Foolish Wives.

Variety, for example, reported that Hell's Angels cost $3.2 million to make, and by July, 1931, eight months after its release, the production cost had nearly been paid off. Keats claimed the picture cost $4 million to make and that it earned twice that much within twenty years. The production cost estimate is probably correct. Hughes worked on the picture for over two years, shooting it first as a silent and then as a talkie. Lewis Milestone said that in between Hughes experimented with shooting it in color as well. But Variety's earnings report must be the fabrication of a delirious publicity agent, and Keats' the working of a myth maker. During the seven years it was in United Artists distribution, Hell's Angels grossed $1.6 million in the domestic market, of which Hughes' share was $1.2 million. Whatever the foreign gross was, it seems unlikely that it was great enough to earn a profit for the picture.

It was the most popular film of the year (from any studio) in both North America and Britain, and its foreign earnings were three times higher than those of any other MGM film released in the 1941–42 season. The production cost ($1,344,000) was one of the highest of the season, indicating the studio never thought of the film as a potential loss-maker. When the film earned a worldwide gross of $8,878,000, MGM had the highest profit ($4,831,000) in its history. Random Harvest nearly matched the success of Mrs Miniver with worldwide earnings of $8,147,000 yielding the second-highest profit in MGM's history ($4,384,000). Random Harvest was also the most popular film of the year in Britain, where it proved to be even more popular than Britain's most acclaimed war film, In Which We Serve.

Leading the pack of postwar sex hygiene films was Mom and Dad (1944), which would become not only the most successful sex hygiene film in history but the biggest pre-1960 exploitation film of any kind. At the end of 1947, the Los Angeles Times reported that Mom and Dad had grossed $2 million. By 1949 Time had estimated that Mom and Dad had taken in $8 million from twenty million moviegoers. And publicity issuing from Mom and Dad's production company indicated that by the end of 1956 it had grossed over $80 million worldwide. Net rentals of around $22 million by 1956 would easily place it in the top ten films of the late 1940s and early 1950s had it appeared on conventional lists. Some estimates have placed its total gross over the years at up to $100 million, and it was still playing drive-in dates into 1975...The film was made for around $65,000 with a crew of Hollywood veterans including director William "One Shot" Beaudine, cinematographer Marcel LePicard, and a cast that sported old stalwarts Hardie Albright, Francis Ford, and John Hamilton.

Various accounts have cited $15 to $18 million profits during the first few years of release, while in a letter to a potential investor in the proposed sound version, Aitken noted that a $15 to $18 million box-office gross was a 'conservative estimate'. For years Variety has listed The Birth of a Nation's total rental at $50 million. (This reflects the total amount paid to the distributor, not box-office gross.) This 'trade legend' has finally been acknowledged by Variety as a 'whopper myth', and the amount has been revised to $5 million. That figure seems far more feasible, as reports of earnings in the Griffith collection list gross receipts for 1915–1919 at slightly more than $5.2 million (including foreign distribution) and total earnings after deducting general office expenses, but not royalties, at about $2 million.
