9,000,000,312 viewers? I doubt that. there's not that many people on this earth.

I'd have to say Avatar. but I haven't seen Holmes or Blind Side yet, so... LotR is still the best of the decade.

Invictus was the best for me. There might have been something else early in the year im forgetting about but oh well. And Avatar Sucked I am not at all a fan of seeing 3D movies that dont have campy pop out effects or air thin plots or copy and pasted music or tall blue people for that matter. Yeah im not a fan of Avatar lol

Also why do you have #3 on there???? Thats a bit creepy....
3 Prophets Packs ftw

Well I know what movie we won't be seeing up there....Paranormal Activity...it sucked soooooooo bad. Like a vaccum. It wasn't even scary. Except for the end. and that was 5 minutes. And it was kind of hard to believe it was based of a real story...

I'm pretty sure it wasn't.

For me, it's a battle between Avatar, UP!, and Star Trek. All three of those were amazing.

 The Disney movie 'UP' was a average disney movie,there was adventure,sadness,then a colorful ending.But it was still a good movie.
Star Trek was more of an action movie, I would give it a 8-10 rating wise.

UP! was even better than average in my opinion. Great humor, great action, and amazing drama. I cried, literally. And that might be funny if you know me.

It was a moment! The whole thing was awesome, and this is from the guy who saw the princess and the frog and started warning people about it. *Shudder* What a dark movie.

Not to be annoying, but:

1) The number you had in your original post, 9,000,000,312, is nine billion three hundred twelve. Which is about one and a third times the world's population.
2) The US has over 300 million people. China has over 1.3 billion. The UK has over 61 million. Your numbers are way off.

When talking about the popularity of movies, it is "standard" to use box office profits, not viewers.  Like Tim said, your numbers are completely off.  I would be interested in seeing an accurate version of this list using profits though...

Although I expect Holmes will go up on the list over time, Avatar is by far the winner according to that list, and it only recently came out.

However, box office profits generally represent the public opinion of the movie before they know anything about it, since you don't actually know what you think of a movie until after you have paid to see it, so I don't think profits are necessarily the best way to judge the best movies (which is why this thread is here in the first place I assume).

Here's the listing of profits for 2009's movies.
that list can't be right. Antichrist is number 267, not 666.

on a side note, I can't believe Up didn't beat Ice Age.

Sequels to popular movies typically do well in the box office, regardless of whether they were better than other movies. This is another reason judgements based on profits are inaccurate.

Yeah it is. It opened saying it did. Also, during the special edition of the DVD, they had a special where the family members of both people were there during the taping to make sure it was accurate.

Hahahahaha.
Anyway Avatar is by far best movie of the year, decade, century, ever it does not matter. Avatar is number one. Also the effects on that movie set the bar farther than the moon. Good luck trying to compete with that one. Sherlock Holmes was good too, but no Avatar.

Pocahontas Avatar was shiny, but no way it beats out No Country for Old Men, High Fidelity, LotR, Almost Famous, There Will be Blood, The Dark Knight, or Spirited Away.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!
