The 10 Most Surprising Box Office Hits Of 2017

Despite studios crying that they didn't make enough money this year (maybe it'd help if they stopped hiring all these abusers and put an end to all their scandals?), 2017 provided a smorgasbord of movies. As usual, we got the big blockbusters, but we also received some surprising box office hits that no one saw coming. To date, 16 films have grossed over $500 million.

After the critical drubbing that Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad took and Justice League‘s production woes, things weren’t looking good for Wonder Woman. To make matters worse, there were whispers that Patty Jenkins’ movie was also destined to flop and the studio had no faith in it.

The good news was, everyone was wrong. Wonder Woman was a roaring success, entertaining critics, fans, and the cash registers alike. With a budget of $149 million, it reached an astronomical $821.9 million worldwide and showed immense legs at the box office. Not one person thought it would make as much money as it did.

With the future of the DC Extended Universe still in limbo, one thing’s for certain: Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman will be around for years to come. There’s no way that Warner Bros. will chuck away this godsend – or will they?
