They were saying the same thing about Titanic, he blew that out of the box with Avatar, dude is just a great film maker and he will make something else that does very well.

 

[veritech]

avatar was a decent movie and all but thirty percent of the box office totals are the extra charges for the 3d version.

totally inflated perception.

 

[LSN]

And DVD/Bluray $$$ ain't even come in yet...!

[THREAD_CRITIC]

totally inflated perception.

pretty much....Titanic sold more tickets...still pretty good movie though

 

[monsterman]

Didn't it take almost a year for Titanic to be B.O. king. This joint here did it in a matter of months. Dude sure knows how to hype a movie.

 

[J Storm]

[Sampson]

Inflation people.

If we goin that route, i remember watching or reading something that said if we were doing "Tickets Sold" that the movie "Gone With The Wind" would've destroyed all of these

i remember reading that Disney's "Snow White" has the all time tickets sold record.

but you and others raise a good point.

these inflated ass ticket prices is why these movies keep doing 'better gross.' it is fairly difficult to find out total ticket sales for movies. the media rarely talks about that. i wonder why that is?????????
