9 Movies That Came Agonizingly Close To $1 Billion And Fell Just Short

While over 50 movies have crossed the billion-dollar mark with their lifetime box office grosses, a handful has agonizingly fallen short of achieving that feat by crossing $950 million but not reaching ten figures. In the unpredictable world of box office economics, several movies have defied expectations and set impressive records by rising well above their initial projections. Meanwhile, many big-budget films have also gone in losses by barely earning back their budget at the box office. Somewhere in the middle of the two extremes, there are multitudes of movies that have had fairly average box office performances, settling somewhere with a few 100 million dollars.
