Another year of cinema comes to a close and it was a year dominated by the most unexpected double-bill the world of cinema has ever seen. What grew from a quirky viral trend known as "Barbenheimer" ultimately became the biggest box office success story of the year with Barbie and Oppenheimer grossing $1.4 billion and $952 million worldwide, respectively.
