Yeah, but in terms of ticket sales Avatar didn't even come close to the 135 million sold set by Titanic. I think it did like half that lol. Titanic today would have over a billion domestically (without 3D like Avatar had) and I'm even afraid to say how much internationally. This is the most modern film that has accomplished such crazy numbers. You take a look at the top 20 inflation adjusted and well, Titanic is like the only 90's film on there. Many are 70' and 80's and even way before. I don't really consider Avatar topping Titanic...it's just EXTREMELY difficult to crown Avatar when the ticket sales were actually quite low.

Gone with the Wind had NUMEROUS theatrical releases...it was a whole different world back then and cannot be compared to Titanic's time. ALL people had then were movies for entertainment really as far as technology goes. Titanic did monstrous sales in the 90's when there were many other forms of entertainment options. In any case, BOTH were huge for their respective time periods. 

And yeah, you're right...6 years. It was pretty much released in 2010.

Yeah, just go to the amazing site www.boxofficemojo.com - they are extremely reliable! You can convert the grosses to any year you wish as well as convert to the estimated ticket sales based on avg ticket prices for 2015.

Wow, thanks a lot for downplaying Avatar's success just because you didn't think much of it.

Yet it just so happens to be like the best-selling bluray/dvd of all-tiime!!! That doesn't happen to movies that are hated.

I'm not downplaying anything. I'm just giving my opinion. I didn't even mention that it was hated, so I have no idea where that came from... and if its done well on DVD/BluRay, cool. I don't really track movies, it's not my expertise. 

What's more interesting is seeing if it can beat them when adjusted for inflation.

It's okay to like the original Fern Gully more than Fern Gully 3D: I do.

I'm not downplaying its sucess, in fact, it was a huge sucess, it's just that I don't like it. And I can't help myself to think otherwise. And, honestly, I don't think there's a lot to think about Avatar xDDD. Just my opinion, though. 

I dont think anything will ever beat Avatar, but this will definetly beat Avengers, Jurassic World and probably beat Titanic.

No it wouldnt and this also makes no sense, Gone with the Wind adjusted for inflation would have grossed over 5 billion dolars, thats unrealistic as hell, if the tickets costed what they cost nowadays a lot less ppl woudlve bought it, also ppl went more to theaters in the past because we didnt have nearly as much forms of entertainement as we do today. Adjusting grosses for inflation makes 0 sense realy.

I dont dislike Avatar but I think its basicaly Pocahontas told with blue alliens instead of indians. Its a fun movie but nothing spetacular, ppl watched it for the visual appeal more than anything.

It makes perfect sense to compare adjusted for inflation.

I still need to see star wars
