But it only has sold like 100th of the tickets that Gone With The Wind has.

I finally saw this and thought that it was good, but not great. The effects were phenomenal and I thought that if they ended it after about the first two hours, it would have been pretty much a perfect movie. Then James Cameron decided that people would be upset if didn't have a happy ending and turned it into the Ewoks defeating the Empire all over again.

Gone with the Wind

- in Cinema over a year

- no compatition from other movie's

- no VHS release so you had to see it in cinema

- many many many re-releases

 

AVATAR truley is the Number 1 movie of all time! yay

You are aware of inflation, right?  Star Wars also sold way more tickets, not including the rerelease.

Gone With The Wind ( a movie Idon't even like, BTW)

- So what?  Avatar will be in the cinema as long as people go to see it as well.

-Do you think that Gone With The Wind was the only movie released that year?  *shakes head*

-Avatar probably wont have a VHS release either.

-I'm sure that Avatar will eventually be relreleased as well.

Avatar is the number one movie in money made off of ticket sales of all time, but not even close to the best movie of all time.  Blue Ewoks I say!!!  It was better than most movies though.  I'll give you that.  It's better than, for example, The Matrix.

Gone with the wind , maybe good , maybe a classic , but it far of being the EIPIC , VISUALLY IMPRESSIVE from avatar besides , after watch gone with the wind you walk a way and say "AMAZING MOVIE" when i finishes of watching avatar on day one all i could think was "I WANNA WATCH IT ONE MORE TIME" AVATAR IS THE NUMBER 1 MOVIE ...and i quoting PSgamer , cuz i pretty much agree with his points ...

If anyone thinks this CG rip off of Pocahontas is the best movie ever then you must have loved it back in 1993.

Or is it you don't like it because it wasn't in the gimmicky 3d,I marketing thing that has been trying to get people in theaters since 1956 with the house of wax.

Titanic is the highest grossing move of all time worldwide. Someone posted the numbers in another thread not so long ago. Gone with the wind is 2nd highest.

Avatar will get close though. Maybe $2,400,000,000 worlwide when all is said and done (Titanic's worldwide gross revenue is $2,900,000,000 adjusted for inflation. And as a reference, LOTR The Return of the King is $1,350,000,000).

Why the hate towards Titanic BTW? I haven't seen Avatar yet but I have a strong feeling it is just as clichéd and melodramatic as Titanic.

your actually de-railing the thread so please stop

Avatar will be at number 1 next week as it brought in THE MOST MONEY

simple 

 

Ah youth... you don't understand that money value changes over time and you can't make any comparison past a certain point without adjusting all values to a level field, do you?  Avatar is 'number one' of all time in the same way Phelps is the greatest Olympian of all time because today we happen to have more swimming events than anything else (and he's good at swimming).  But how would Mike have fared in Ancient Greece?  Or how would they fare now?

We're conditioned by market forces to go 'of all time' but it's meaningless.

The way I look at it Avatar is the biggest grosser of probably the last ten years (maybe more).  You start going back much past that and the value of money has changed comparison becomes silly.

Remember Dr Evil... 'One million dollars'.  Just a million, oh, okay then, here you go Dr Evil.  A million dollars is nothing these days...

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

you have already been proven wrong. 

 

now. like the movie and celebrate it being THE NUMBER ONE MOVIE OF ALL TIME 

or get the hell out of my thread

 

we understand inflation thanks. bye 



You guys really need to give it a rest. Inflation is a legitimate point, but if you guys would stop commenting about it, it wouldn't be the main theme of the thread.

The way I see it, I don't care about inflation. Either you take the numbers how they are, and have Avatar at number one, or you adjust for inflation, and Titanic still isn't number one. That's all that matters to me. No, I've never seen Titanic, so I have no justifiable reason to dislike it. But I dislike it anyway. So my opinion is very much biased.

Congrats to Avatar. It was an enjoyable movie.

EDIT: And I'm referring to those of you who keep responding to the people who brought up inflation.

You've already stated your dislike for it a couple of posts ago, and you made your point back then. We get it. You didn't like the movie, others (a lot of others) did. No need to go off about it.
