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.

so what about inflation? who gives at the end of the day, the highest grossing movie is AVATAR, thats it...and you know why everyone will say it IS? because its brought in more money then any other movie, and thats what we are talking about. 

Avatar is the highest grossing movie of ALL time....DEAL WITH IT
