'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1' Surpassed Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' to Become Highest Grossing Film of 2014

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 has managed to become the top-grossing film of 2014, surpassing Marvel's Guardian of the Galaxy.

The movie only slightly took the lead over the Marvel film after pulling in $333.3 million in North America alone.

Guardians of the Galaxy could only muster $333.17 million, but we expect the sequel to be more successful considering its popularity just on its first outing.

We have to point out that it is the second year in a row that The Hunger Games has managed to walk away with the top prize in the North American ticket sales department, and the second year the movie has surpassed a Marvel film.
