Forum debate has been raging over the All-Time Worldwide Grossing list. I put together this list as a possible alternative. It lists the top5 grossing films from each yeah since 1975. Why 1975? That's the year of release of Jaws, the first summer blockbuster. Also, the All-Time list only has 4 films on it from pre-1975.

Used 3 sources to compile:
1975 - 1979: http://www.the-numbers.com/movies/#tab=year
1980 - 1988: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/yearly/
1989 - Present: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/yearly/?view2=worldwide&view=releasedate&p=.htm
