If you mean movies rated R. Then, again according to boxoffficemojo.com, the domestic champ is "The Passion of the Christ" with a lifetime gross of $370,782,930 since its release in 2004.

Yes Dr Callister but on demand of the industrial Fred Walker !

A crazy swagman down by a Billabong after boiling up some shine in his billy under the shade of a Coolabah tree.
Only a nutter like that would invent something like Vegemite

My first thought is My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

p.s. Titanic was #1 for several weeks.

My guess would be "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" since it played in theaters for 30 years since its release in 1975.

What is the origin of the phrase "acid test"?

|
From Gold Rush days in the USA. Gold doesn't react to most acids as other metals do, but does react to nitric acid. To confirm that a find was gold they used this acid in 'the acid test'.
|
|
|
|
|
Nitric acid was used to determined the purity of gold when it was used as currency in the days before coinage.
