The ever-present eyes of TMZ recently ran up on Kevin Hart, and after brushing off some snide remarks in the Sony scandal, Hart wisely refused to publicly say if he’d work with the company again.

“It keeps getting better,” Hart stated before driving off. It’s hard to argue with him given the enormous success he had this year. Before the ball drops on a new year, here are just a few of the reasons why Kevin Hart won 2014.

The four films Hart had significant roles in—Top Five, Think Like Man Too, About Last Night, and Ride Along—brought in over $100 million in box office gross for 2014 alone.

Despite Sony executives calling him a “whore” in leaked emails, Kevin Hart allegedly still got that $2 million from Sony for tweeting about his movies with the company.

This is Kevin Hart’s fiancée, Eniko Parrish. That fact alone is a win.

Forbes estimates Kevin Hart brought in $14 million in 2014, making him the sixth highest paid comedian in the industry. As he said, the watch game is indeed disgusting.

Hart will start off 2015 with an Saturday Night Live hosting gig and a new movie entitled The Wedding Ringer with Kaley Cuoco.

In addition to his comedy and acting, Hart locked down endorsement deals from both Ford and EA Sports.

Hart’s Real Husbands Of Hollywood was Renewed for a fourth season after season three drew 2.2 million viewers during its BET premiere.

While other comedians and actors were struggling for work in 2014, Kevin Hart was already lining up projects through 2017, including The Secret Life Of Pets and Central Intelligence.
