Bruce recently sent us some primo patter that via his potently powerful pad "Ultimate Movie Rankings" he had recently shared 'bout the mighty mighty box office power of our most beloved Dino and his most beloved partner Mr. Jerry Lewis. Cogerson scribed us: "You might find this new page interesting....searched over 23,000 movies...and the Dean Martin Jerry Lewis finished in the Top 5....as an answer to this which Screen Duo team was the most successful of all-time."
Turns out that 'ccordin' to Bruce's research our main man and his main pallie Mr. Lewis are ranked numero duo all time most successful screen duo. While we woulda have loved to hear that Dino and Jerry can in first, it ain't shabby at all to come in second. The details are listed below, but we ain't got the 'puter savvy that Cogerson has to gets his charts to fully show here, so for his complete report includin' how well that the team of Martin and Sinatra also did, simply clicks on the tag of this Dino-message.
Likes 'gain, we says our terrific thanks to Mr. Bruce Cogerson for his continued efforts to share more and more facts and figures that point to our mighty mighty Dino's box office power. Dino-always, ever, and only, DMP
Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis were one of the most succesful screen teams ever
Top 15 Screen Duos of All-Time
One of our latest movie pages here at Ultimate Movie Rankings.com was one that looked at the movie career of Jerry Lewis. The first 16 movies of Lewis’ career were with his screen partner, Dean Martin. As we were looking at the fantastic box office numbers of those 16 movies….a question popped into our heads…..who are the Top 15 Screen Duos of all-time? So the awesome wife went to our massive database ….wrote some code….did a query search and up popped some possible answers to that question.
| Rank | Screen Team | Years Active | Movies | Tickets Sold | Total Adjusted Domestic Box Office | AVG Gross Per Movie | Biggest Hit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis | 1949-1956 | 16 | 233.73 million | $1.94 billion | $121.25 million | Living It Up (1954) |
Thanks for sharing my link. After reading your comment I went and researched Dean's other movie partnerships. From my reply to your comment.
ReplyDelete"Actually I ran the numbers….Dino and Sammy Davis Jr made 4 movies together and their box office was $528.60 in adjusted domestic gross…..Dino made 5 movies with Shirley MacLaine and their box office was $446.60 million in adjusted domestic gross. So Dean made the list 4 times. Dino and Jerry in 2nd place, Dino and Frank in 28th place, Dino and Sammy in 31st place and Dino and Shirley in 42nd place. I know I am impressed."
Once again...thanks for checking out one of my latest pages.

ReplyDeleteThis is a very interesting AND amazing read. It is remarkable how well Dean's movies did and how much money he made for the studios. Talk about a real talent and being bankable! You can rest assured if his projects did not do well he would not have been offered so many roles. No matter what you can say about Hollywood producers and studios, when it came to making money they are as sharp as they come and they knew who the real talent was. Thank you my friend for bringing this wonderful blog as well as the link our way!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.
