Predicting 20 Highest Grossing Movies Of 2018

15. Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation ($565 Million)

Release Date: July 13

Though hardly critical darlings, the Hotel Transylvania movies have proven solid hits for Sony Pictures, grossing $358.4 million and $462.7 million respectively against modest $80-85 million budgets.

Even with it releasing the same week as Ant-Man and the Wasp, there's little point counting against the box office power of younger children and their parents, so the third entry into the franchise should see another healthy uptick, effortlessly crossing the half-billion mark.

It'll no doubt help that the summer's pretty starved of big studio animations, and releasing the movie in July as opposed to the September release of its predecessors could give it a healthy seasonal boost.
