* Doesn't necessarily mean they're among the worst movies of all time, though many of them are (especially Godzilla). If I'm forgetting any, feel free to send an email.
** In millions. Not including prints and advertising costs, which can add as much as $50 million to the bigger releases' total costs. Studios tend to get roughly half of the gross. Ancillary revenue is not taken into account. For instance, Hudson Hawk and Waterworld probably broke even as their overseas grosses were $80+ and $167 million respectively.
The % is the relationship of the total domestic gross to the budget. The higher the % the better for the producers.
^ Four-day weekend.
