Yes AAA always meant budget, it is literally a term from finance. Why that was adopted into broader meaning is unclear to me. Nobody used that to group movies.

People do this to group movies. It's called blockbusters, and the industry is heavily geared towards them

Well, different meaning and history: it started out meaning successful or the better word would be impactful (like Blockbuster munition, which the name derives from). But I guess the meaning changed to describe movies that get big budget to target to become a blockbuster. In gaming AAA meant from the beginning the big budget.
