Guys. Squirrel, by making a neutral observation about inflation, isn't attacking or devaluing Avatar, MUCH LESS YOU. I don't see why this is being taken so personally.

The point is (for those of you who don't understand inflation), while Gone With the Wind may not have grossed as much, the money it did gross was worth much, much more back then. Think 30 cent gas prices (this is a rough guess, I'm by no means a gas price historian).

Basically, he's just pointing out that ticket sales are the best metric for a movie's success, not un-adjusted gross. He's NOT attacking Avatar. Damn, he's just explaining this for the people who don't know or understand this--which judging from your angry, hyper-defensive posts, is a lot of you.

we understand mate

the point your missing is. at the end of the day which movie has brought in more money then any other.....that movie is avatar, thats it really

i know about inflation ect and i know it was wort alot then but done forget how much $2,000,000,000 is worth now lol. 

Gone with the Wind will never always bee the highest earning movie as its not even close

Nah, you really don't. The amount of money Gone With the Wind made was worth a lot more then than 2 billion was today. 

Anyway. My point is, Squirrel isn't attacking Avatar or you. Don't get so angry and argumentative right away, damn.
