Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Some of the biggest movies and franchises in recent history are rapidly racing towards major anniversaries. Every year, more and more films are released, with the box office continuing to experience steady growth. With this growth in popularity and the booming business of cinema, there are a lot more films that have become widely recognized and favored by the public.
Related 7 Ways 1999's The Mummy Was Almost Entirely Different The Mummy was a box office smash when it was released in 1999, but the horror/action-adventure film was almost radically different. The movie did receive some negative backlash from fans of the original trilogy and critics, but overall, it led to the series growing larger than ever before. In the 25 years since The Phantom Menace, six more mainline films were released, with even more announced, additional solo stories, and a whole batch of series, both live-action and animated. Star Wars may have found a new home at Disney, but the IP is larger than ever.
6 The Lion King - 30 Years Another property of Disney, The Lion King, is one of the most beloved children's films of all time, with one of the most tragic and heart-wrenching deaths. When the movie initially released in 1994, it gained critical and commercial success as it received a wide array of awards, including Oscars, Golden Globes, and Grammys. The film also went on to inspire several sequels, although none reached the same height of popularity, and a live-action remake in 2019.
Then, in 2014, the new films tried to tie together the timelines from the earlier trilogy with X-Men: Days of Future Past. This may have seemed like a near impossible challenge, but by all accounts, the movie accomplished what it set out to do and became one of the most beloved films of the Fox X-Men series.
3 Fight Club - 25 Years Looking further back, one of the greatest films ever made came out in 1999, directed by the visionary David Fincher. Fight Club was based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, and starred the incredible talents of Edward Norton, Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter. The movie features one of the all-time best twists in any movie, and became an instant classic with fans quoting and debating the film and its themes at length.
