Dueling Movies

This page is a list of similar films that were released at around the same time.

Occasionally, studios will be forced to war with one another when they simultaneously produce similar movies which are subsequently released within a short time from each other.

One very rare aversion, Warner Brothers bought the rights to The Tower and eight weeks later, 20th Century Fox bought the rights to The Glass Inferno so to avoid having similar films at the box office at the same time, they joined forces and combined the novels into The Towering Inferno!

See also Dueling Products, Dueling Games, and Dueling Shows for proof that this type of competition isn't limited to just films. See also The Mockbuster.

Not to be confused with Dueling Stars Movie.
