The following films have earned at least $200 million at the domestic box office when taking into account ticket price inflation over the years. Adjusted figures are based on the 2007 average ticket price of $6.88,
and are rounded to the nearest 1/2 million.

The current version of this list goes back to 1939 (with the exception of Snow White since it earned the vast majority of its money in later
re-releases), and is based entirely on my own personal adjustment calculations.

Background information on the construction of the current version of this list (as well as some of my own personal thoughts on the subject) can be found here: www.boxofficereport.com/atbon/adjustedextra.shtml

Key:
* = One Major Reissue (Above $15 m adjusted)
# = One Minor Reissue (Below $15 m adjusted)
** = Multiple Reissues (At least 1 Major)
## = Multiple Reissues (All Minor)
^ = Film opened wide the following year
x = Gross is a personal estimate based on revenue data
z = Personal estimate that differs from widely reported gross

My estimated grosses are also highlighted in green
