2014 Movie Profit Rankings

[Mr Light]

I was bored so I went through the 2014 movie grosses to see which movies were the most profitable and then I ranked them according to the percentage of profitability.

A movie is generally considered successful if it grosses 2 to 3 times it's budget, so anything over 300% is great.
