Proving that the R-rating is not as dreadful as some producers will have you think, 4 of the twenty movies to grab over $100 million at the movie box office were rated-R.

Nine of the movies in the Top 20 at the 2009 movie box office are rated PG-13. Six PG. And one G.

Finally, there is NO question that the following 2009 big screen releases will all also climb well over the $100 if not $200+ million mark:

24 Disney's A Christmas Carol
25 2012
26 New Moon
27 Precious
28 Nine
29 Old Dogs
30 Up In The Air
31 Did You Hear About The Morgans?
32 It's Complicated
33 The Lovely Bones

34 Avatar

... thus making 2009 the biggest ever for number of movies to gross over $100 at the domestic movie box office; 34.

There is a slim possibility that "The Road," "Disney's Princess And The Frog" and "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" could all each grab over $100 million. Stay tuned. We'll let you know.
