It also has a lot to do with how many theaters that the movie opens on, too. Some movies make millions more than others because they were shown on an extra 500-1000 theaters than the other films.

I think the ranking system for successful theatrical films should be based on the number of tickets sold divided by the number of theaters it was shown on. That way, smaller debuts won't be overshadowed by summer blockbusters and there's no more adjusting for inflation, either. A movie ticket in 1930 is still a movie ticket today.

Also it would help resolve the issue about a movie having multiple theatrical releases (Gone With The Wind, Star Wars). Some movies, even if they are excellent films, may only get one theatrical release ever. Others may have several.

Home video should have a similar ranking system to music album sales. Just go by the number of units sold, rather than how much money the home release made. You could still break it down into DVD, BD, 3D, Combo and 3D Combo releases (or VHS/Laserdisc/Betamax for the older films).
Hey simmer down! If we do that the big guys up stairs in those big studios on their big cushy chairs lose money on the DVD/BD and network events such as the crapfests known as The Oscars and we cant have the little guys on top that takes big money out of the head honcho up at the top of the chain. Go back to sleep, now where did I leave that blue pill.
