Re: WHAT ACTOR OF ALL TIME

Only a guess, but I'd have to say:
Director= Mel gibson made over $600 million for the Passion, but Steven Speilberg is my guess
Actor/Actress= Arnold was getting over $30 million for all three of his last movies and made close to $15-20 million for some of the others after Terminator. Of course Harrison Ford made a ****load of money from American Graffeti through his last movie. But who knows...great question

But I don't know much at all about the industry. These are just pure guesses. I'd be interested to see the actual answers.

Re: WHAT ACTOR OF ALL TIME

I'd have to go with someone like Nicholson, Paccino or DeNiro cause these cats have been at it for quite some time and have tons of flicks under their belt.

Re: WHAT ACTOR OF ALL TIME

77. "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" $184,925,486 1937

Is that right? Almost 200 million in 1937, with the depression. Damn, if you accounted for inflation Snow White is probably giving the Titanic a run for its money and that was before it was redone in color!!

Interesting stuff Fuzo!

Re: WHAT ACTOR OF ALL TIME

So what the phuque does that tell us Gallielo?? That Kate Winslet is the highest paid actress because Titanic made $600,000,000???
The question was "What actor or actress has made the most money all time with their movies?"
