Top 10 movies on Facebook

Whoever thinks Avatar will be the first and the most visited fan page on Facebook, will be surprised, because the top one is a crazy comedy called The Hangover. 5 820 762 fans is a quite nice number compared to other movies on Facebook and to its unknown name of the film. The second place is occupied by famous and teens beloved Twilight saga with 5 752 532 fans. Youth are keen on Twilight, especially girls are catching a glimpse of Twilight every day on Facebook. On the other hand – there is also a strong base of haters. Nevertheless their foible has never reached such larger numbers.

James Cameron’s Titanic got into the third place. After a few years it is still holding its position as one of the best movies in the history of mankind. Although 4 873 828 fans is not so much compared to the two first places and we highly doubt whether it is possible to reach The Hangover and Twilight due to an old age of the movie.

Only one place is reserved for a famous movie maker with 4 593 891 fans. Disney is on the fourth place and it is proud to be counted on the list. There has also been a large growth in last 6 months. Disney is a strong brand and an even stronger company which produces large numbers of animated movies every year. Disney definitely has a potential to build up its own Facebook world.

One of the best movies of all times is placed on the fifth position. Dirty Dancing was a cult for most people and with its 3 752 260 fans Dirty Dancing is still on after 23 years.

Never ending Toy Story has an almost smooth 90 degrees growth curve which been rising since Toy Story 3 was released. Famous animated heroes are very popular by kids so that the growth is not so unusual. Toy Story is an incredible movie with a decent sense of humour and unforgettable characters. You should definitely see this must-see film!

Vampires are in the game again. Even though the seventh place is not so high we can take into account some growth in the future due to craziness which is spilled around New Moon: The Movie from Twilight saga. Masses of teens are daily interacting with the fan page on Facebook and it is only the beginning. We are pretty sure that 3 091 943 fans is not a final number.

Last three places have not reached 3 million fans yet, despite this fact, none of them has to be scared of a decline. The second half of the year will move them to the top for sure. The most visible movie is Buddy The Elf which made a jump to the tenth position. It is a little bit strange that this typically Christmas movie is rising during the summer time. Its 2 691 837 fans are proof that we will see Buddy The Elf during Christmas time again.

We can see that there are no rules for the best movies on Facebook. Most of the movies are very old and people just want to see them again or they simply do not want to forget these movies.
