Avatar: Fire and Ash, The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants – 623
Tip of the cap to James Cameron who with Avatar: Fire and Ash has managed to make the us watch essentially same film 3x over (though this time it’s hornier than ever).

Lilo & Stitch, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Fountain of Youth – 656
Lilo & Stitch is built on the back of the strength of the original film. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning doesn’t know how to balance spectacle with coherent story.
