We're nearly at the end of 2019, so we figured it was about time we looked back at the biggest movies of the year to date.
All data (from Box Office Mojo) is accurate as to December 1, so we'll update later this month with Jumanji: The Next Level, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and however big Frozen 2 gets.
It probably won't be a surprise to know that Avengers: Endgame is the biggest movie of the year since it's the biggest movie OF ALL TIME, but there are a few surprises littered among the top 20.
