So I went digging a lil more:
12th 200M — Home alone Jan 1991 (1 yr and 0 quarters posts 1990)
12th 250M — Titanic Jan 1998 (8Y0Q)
12th 300M — SM1 May 2002 (12.25Y)
12th 350M — DMC Jul 2006 (16.5Y)
12th 400M — TLK Sep 2011 (21.5Y)
12th 450M — BatB Apr 2017 (27.25Y, 2MCU)
12th 500M — I2 Jul 2018 (28.5Y, 3MCU)
12th 550M — TGM Jul 2022 (32.5Y, 5MCU)
12th 600M — TGM Jul 2022 (32.5Y, 5MCU)
Also fun fact, TGM will make it 7 movies in the top 12 with A+.
From 200 to 450, 125% growth in 26.25 yrs, ~3.1% annual growth.
From 450 to 600, 33% growth in 5.25yrs, 5.6% annual growth.
From 200 to 600, 200% growth in 31.5yrs, 3.55% (mostly matching 200 to 400).
Here’s an exponential regression from those milestones:
