The 10 Top Grossing Films of 2019, so far...

It feels like every year we see the same articles about movie theatre attendance dying off, and then every year there's a Black Panther or an Endgame or a seemingly never-ending line of shark movies that inexplicably open to great numbers! One could argue that these big budget behemoths keep the industry booming and make way for the smaller "artsy" flicks and "passion projects," but, we're not here to argue. We're here to have some fun in the summer sun and celebrate the top grossing movies of the year, so far... See if you can guess the movies from the cartoons alone before you scroll down to see the list! Part 2 looking at the top movies from July through the end of the year will come out in December. Good luck guessing! *Click to enlarge
