Anytime I need to prove that "quality =/= sales", I'm quoting this list.

General concensus to any chart that fails to take inflation into account is that it is near meaningless.

Still good curio value.

Claiming a new Box Office smash always drags a few million more of the brain dead morons of the world into the cinema.

Any post that assumes that the only thing that changes over time when it comes to movies is inflation is near meanginless.

In other words, inflation isn't the only thing that's changed over time.  Gone with the Wind was released in a market vastly different from ours.  For every issue someone takes with Avatar, there's on that can be taken with Gone with the Wind.  There was much less to do back then in terms of entertainment.  There was no internet to torrent movies from.  Far fewer movies were released, and virtually none were released that were on the same level as Gone with the Wind for a LONG time.  I could go on.  Get the point? 

Yes I'm aware of it, but as you well know, everyone is concentrating on this Titanic VS Avatar race ..

I'm just proving that tickets sold don't matter at all, really.

It does, people are going to claim Avatar is the biggest ever movie.

I am going to see the movie this weekend in 3D, just to see what all the fuss is about..

TITANIC is my favorite movie ever, I hope avatar is half as good.

It will be. The box office figures should pass Titanic's soon enough.

One funny thing about that list is "New moon" numbers... 683 million dollars.. not bad for a movie that cost around 50m to do

The thing I love about that is that it really really pisses alot of people of

oh and another funny thing is that "Twilight" and "New Moon" together have earned more money then pretty much all wampire movies the last 20 years put together
