It's completely and utterly insane to not account for inflation. By the only fair way of doing it, Gone With the Wind is the highest grossing movie.

I'd say the opposite...

You're going to need to elaborate on that one, because I don't see how. What the box office represents should typically be either

a) How many people went to see the film
or
b) How much money was spent to see the movie

The only way it makes sense to compare cash flows between years, is to make them real. Comparing the nominal sums of two years is comparing two unequal kinds of money.
