| naruball said: I find the whole "but, but inflation!!!" arguments pretty ridiculous. Different times back then. There's literally no way Gone with the Wind would do 4b+ if released this year. Things have changed so much over the years, it's not even funny. Just days after the movie hits the theaters, you find decent copies online either through streaming sites or torrents. And I have heard they're pretty good. If you check number of downloads you get an idea of how much it affects sales. With streaming it's harder to check, but I'm sure numbers are pretty high. Plus plenty of people have learned to wait for the dvd/bluray release. With Netflix and so many on demand services, there are so many different ways to eventually watch the movie. |
Ty sir exactly my point, completly different context, the inflation argument just doesnt work.
And the Star Wars insanity continues as the numbers for Wedsnesday are released and the movie actualy made 1M more than it did on Thuesday, so ye this is gona break 1 billion on the USA by the end of its 5th weak if it continues on this path. Its now tracking almost 100 M ahead of Jurassic World, its likely gona be 150M + ahead of it by the end of its second weakend. Worldwide its over 760 M now without even having released on the worlds second largest movie market.
