Forums - Movies & TV - Will Star Wars The Force Awakens earn more than Gone With The Winds inflated gross?

Gone with the Winds gross adjusted for inflation is $3.444 billion. Will Star Wars surpass this gross.

I think its possible that it has a shot at this. Agree or disagree?



Proud to be a Californian.

You are asking The Force Awakens to be over twice as successful (talking "inflated gross") as the original Star Wars. I highly doubt that is going to happen.

No chance.

Only two movies have ever grossed $2 billion (not adjusted for inflation).

Only Avatar came close to $3 billion, with ~$2.7 billion. That was only in 2009, ticket price inflation hasn't had that far to run in that time.

This could be the first non-James Cameron movie to top $2 billion, and I really hope it is. But $3 billion is just too much to expect, letalone $3.5 billion.



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

I think it will be $2 billion + but 3.444 billion is taking it a bit far.



Hmmm anything is possible I guess Wasn't the Phantom Menace like a $1bil movie? With all the hype getting pumped out and the nostalgia being everywhere I could see it reach $2.5 bil max. However, if it does break $3.5bil then I will be very impressed

This.

I just don't think Star Wars has quite the popularity people are pegging it to have. There is definitely a following, but not EVERYBODY likes it.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

I think that if it is good enoguh but if its like the pruquels no way



I sort of doubt it, but if it's great then It's possible.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

No, I don't think this will beat Avatar either..

Anything is possible... remember who is behind this movie nowadays. :P



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
