When you factor for inflation, Gone with the Wind saw (roughly) 3 times the ticket sales that Avatar currently has

inflation doesn't matter. Nobody's going to say that Avatar is number one,but technically because of inflation Gone with the Wind is.

Actually, I know of several people who have become increasingly annoyed by these records being broken because movie when it can mostly be attributed to movie theaters charging $15 for a movie. If you want something that is not as easily manipulated you should look at total ticket sales, which (in all reality) no movie will ever beat Gone with the Wind.
