List of Highest-Grossing Films NOT from major studios?

Is there a list of highest-grossing films that are not released or distributed by a major film studio (specifically a conglomerate's main film studio, like Warner Bros., Universal, Columbia, or Paramount)? If such a list were to include conglomerates' secondary or lesser studios (20th Century Fox/Studios, because it was a former major studio, wouldn't count), then it would be topped by The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (a New Line Cinema film).

If you discount subsidiaries then there is this article: List of highest-grossing independent films. Betty Logan (talk) 08:54, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Okay, now what about the other highest-grossing films by lesser subsidiaries, and the highest-grossing films by the mini-majors? As far as Lionsgate goes, I only see Crash (2004/5) on that highest-grossing independent film list. When did Lionsgate stop being an independent studio? As I already mentioned, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is the only lesser-subsidiary film I know of whose worldwide box-office gross exceeds US$1 billion. I don't know of any mini-majors' films that exceed that same mark, since The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (also a Lionsgate film) has a worldwide box-office gross of only $865 million. If a list of highest-grossing lesser-subsidiaries' films included Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures subsidiaries, I'm betting that conglom would occupy the whole top 10 or so.

† Background shading indicates that at least one film in the series is playing in the week commencing 12 April 2024 in theaters around the world.

Consider that eg a James Bond film is showing at https://princecharlescinema.com/PrinceCharlesCinema.dll/Seasons?e=29205568 - seems that this may never be totally accurate. 90.251.159.52 (talk) 09:10, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

The highlighting is mainly functional. It lets readers know that a total hasn't been finalised, and it helps editors keep track of what needs to be updated. It's very unlikely that a box-office tracker will track a one-off screening, but if these are treated as films in release by Box Office Mojo or the Numbers or some other tracker then we will highlight them accordingly.
