Both sources collected 2026-09-22. Figures are each source's published lifetime worldwide gross on that date.
两源分歧最大的一条。维基百科的编辑注记指出,Box Office Mojo 对《哪吒 2》的数字与中国官方来源长期不一致,需用中方数据校正。人民币票房折算美元时,采用的汇率与结算时点不同,就会产生数亿美元级的落差。
同一份维基条目记录过 Box Office Mojo 处理《泰坦尼克号》重映时的两次加总错误,先多加约 700 万美元,后又把终身总额多加约 1400 万美元。老片一旦重映,各源并入的时点与金额都可能不同。
海外票房以当地货币结算,换算时点不同结果就不同。维基条目也指出各国票价与通胀并不同步,因此未经通胀调整的名义票房天然偏向近年影片。
仍在上映的影片每天都在累加。《蜘蛛侠:新的一天》2026 年仍在放映,两源同日公布的数字相差约 12 万美元,属于抓取时点造成的正常漂移,与上面三类系统性分歧不同。
12 of the top 25 opened in 2020 or later, 48% of the list. Box office figures are nominal and never adjusted for ticket-price inflation, so a list like this measures recency and market size as much as popularity.
