List of All-Time Top-Grossing Films should be based on number of ticket sales–not earnings in peso. Or peso devaluation must be considered in computing earnings. If movies nowadays are making much more money than ever, why is the movie industry moribund? I guess Sharon-FPJ movies, as well as the FPJ-Maricel movie Batang Quiapo gross much much more. Even Flor Contemplacion could have grossed more because US dollar was only P25 when it was shown.
