The Admission Count Thread.
HeadShot replied to charlie Jatinder's topic in International Box Office
Both have their advantages and disadvantages. This is why comparing grosses is extremely difficult. Admissions is the best way to determine how big a movie truly was. -
The Admission Count Thread.

Yawns, your claim isn't a fact either. Your posting percentages and acting like it means anything when there are so many other factors. It's as dumb as adjusting for inflation. As I said End Game would have had a much bigger percentage had it been release in a less competitive year this decade. This thread is about admissions aka. which movie was more popular and seen by more people. As you can see EG is the biggest original run of all time. So let's celebrate that. -

More blockbusters equals to less impressive percentage of the total. Not hard to grasp. End Game was released in one of the most competitive years of all time. Put it in 2013 and I'm sure it would have looked different. -

No one said they weren't big but they simply aren't comparable to the blockbusters of 2019. This is the most packed year yet. How many blockbusters were released in 1993 compared to this year? End Game is bigger than Avatar and DEFINITELY bigger than Jurassic Park. And lol at thinking anime is going to dominate anything outside of basement dwellers computers. -
Spider-Man's gross doesn't even excite me anymore.

Um because this whole Anti-SJW movement didn't exist back then. So many movies and tv-shows from the 90s and the 00s have strong female lead characters and no one complained. Xena always said snidely comments about men. She ended up with a woman. This would be hated on so much today. same with buffy

A movie can be a cultural event. Don't tell me I have to explain a basic concept like this to you, little one? Why are you still using Avatar as the standard? Get with the times. The new king is End Game. Also 1.3 billion for Black Panther makes it the highest grossing solo movie of all time. MORE than Iron Man, Captain America and Spider-Man. Kevin will fix re-pair the X-men like he did with Spider-Man. FF are huge characters that will be done right finally Captain Marvel grossed 1.1 billion. Plenty people like her. A movie being original doesn't mean it can't have memorable characters. No one is excited to revisit Jackie Sulley or whatever his name was.

So End Game is bigger than JP and Avatar.
