US Summer Movie Fare Rakes in Money from Around the World

Every year, from May until September, Hollywood rolls out high action and high budget films. These escapist movies are the industry's goldmine, often raking in hundreds of millions of dollars from domestic as well as international release.

The legendary Jack Sparrow, played by legendary actor Johnny Depp, returns in Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tides, the fourth installment. This time our hero is searching for the fountain of youth.

It cost $400 million to make this swashbuckling adventure, and producers believe they will make their money back and more. So far the franchise has yielded almost $3 billion worldwide. That includes movie-related merchandise and Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean theme parks. For this installment, Disney added a 3D ticket premium ranging from $3 to $5.
