The top 14 illegally downloaded movies in 2015: From Fifty Shades of Grey to Jurassic World

Can you guess which film made the number one spot?

Though the box office had a banner year in 2015, the movie business still has to vigorously combat piracy and, according to data, it's on the rise.

Variety released a list of the 14 titles that were pirated the most this year, from tracking firm Excipio.

Two major points stand out. Titles from the year before, like “Interstellar” and “American Sniper,” were still popular in 2015, as both cracked the top 10. And the number of downloads from 2014 climbed dramatically.

In 2014, “Wolf of Wall Street,” a 2013 release, topped the list with just over 30 million downloads. That's 55 per cent less than the title that won out this year. In fact, “Wolf” wouldn't have even made it in the top 10 this year.

Here's the full list:

14. “Inside Out” (22,734,070 downloads)
