Top 25 Movies at the Box Office for 2014

Box office ticket sales dropped by 5.2% in 2014 hitting a low that hasn’t been seen in 19 years. We are partially to blame. We have invested thousands in home theater equipment that can produce an experience better than most theaters, especially if you include non-technical aspects like concession prices and noisy patrons. Why pay high ticket prices when if you are patient you can buy the disc for less than it costs for two people to go see a movie. But with that said, here are the top 25 movies based on total box office for 2014. How many of these did you see in the theater and how many did you see in your home?
