Forums - Sales Discussion - Pre-Avatar in 2009, Only Three Movies Had 1 Billion+ Box office

roadkillers on 12 April 2017

We will be sitting at 30 movies within 2 weeks. (Beauty and the Beast, F8 of the Furious)

 

Before Avatar only Titanic (1997), Return of the King (2003), and Dead Man's Chest (2006) accomplished this.

Inflation makes it a lot easier.

This. Well, this and access to more markets (ehem China ehem).



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Exactly, which is why I did Pre-Avatar. Once Avatar came out ticket prices climbed 2-3 dollars with 3D and inflation.

This as well, China is going to be the reason why F8 of the Furious blows past 1 Billion in Box office. It's a bigger movie in China then US.

Tagging

Did my eyes deceive me? Didn't this post originally say that F8 wasn't going to reach a billion?

Sales Discussion, not Video game sales Discussion. You'll win, but know you are nitpicking little baby. Please correct me if I misunderstand tagging

What are you talking about?

Does tagging not mean reporting? Hmm, that's a very loose term to use. "add to something, especially as an afterthought or with no real connection"

No, he just posted for notifications in case he wanted to post again later.

You've been a Member of this forum for 10 years and you haven't seen people write "Tagging" before?

Actually, I'm also confused because according to his wall he used to be a mod, so I assumed that he would have known whether or not it was terminology for reporting.
