When I wrote my Dean Martin page I was shocked (I had dismissed his movie career) that he had so many movies box office hits.

Hey pallies, likes our Dino-devoted pallie, Mr. Bruce Cogerson of "Cogerson Movie Score" fame, sent us some patter yesterday to let's us know that he was 'gain homagin' our most beloved Dino in a big big way!  We were first introduced to Cogerson's pad when he let us know 'bout his massive Dino-effort, "51 Dean Martin Movies-Best to Worst-with Box Office Results/Grosses,Reviews and Awards" that we featured  under the tag "I think you start to see that Dean Martin was a beast at the box office," on May 9 of last Dino-year.

This time 'round Bruce's post "Actors & Actresses with the Most 100 Million Dollar Box Office Movies 1930-2015 continues to spread his awesome amazement and wonderin' wisdom at the power of our Dino at the box office.  We are sharin' the portions of his text that  accent our King of Cool includin' his Table 1 that shows our Dino in numero tres postion for " Top 10 Actors/Actresses With The Most $100 Million Dollar Box Office Using Adjusted For Inflation Box Office Dollars" with our great man's great total of a cool 4.77 mil!

Actors & Actresses with the Most 100 Million Dollar Box Office Movies 1930-2015

I have been writing Cogerson Movie Score pages on actors/actresses and movie subjects for over three years. When I wrote my Dean Martin page I was shocked (I had dismissed his movie career) that he had so many movies box office hits.  At that point I started to compare Martin to other performers and realized his total of 26 100 million dollar movies was one the best totals of all actors and actresses that I have written about here at CogersonMovieScore.com.  While doing the Martin comparisons I realized that I should do a page that put all of this information into one place....so here you go... my historical look at 100 million dollar movies from 1930-2015.
