I absolutely love the Lord of the Rings. I am definitely not listening to the soundtrack as I write this list! The franchise is known for not only raking in all kinds of money, but also not being shy to dish out some death when necessary. The Two Towers earned 926 million, and at one point was playing in 3,622 theaters. The Return of the King made a remarkable $1,119,929,521 and was playing in 3,703 theaters. The Two Towers saw the end of 468 individuals, 391 of them Uruk-Hai and Orcs. Return of the King got even crazier, dropping 836 different bodies (524 Uruk-Hai and Orcs).
