At this stage, if EG didn't beat A, I'd honestly be a little disappointed. Chinese expansion and inflation alone should be enough to dethrone A after 10 years, never mind the finale of 20+ films!

 

Jim having some competition can only make him work harder and produce a better final result. It's a win-win.

It's ok Disney will artifically push it over Avatar.


Embrassing!

I have mixed feelings about this, on one hand, I would genuinely feel sorry for MCU fans that after all the conviction regarding Avatar is toast (dead in a ditch), and the 3B train, the social media drama and the smearing of Jim, that it doesn't end up passing Avatar! leaving the 2010's the only recent decade without a new worldwide crown. 

 

On the other hand, I really want Avatar 2 to use the angle of "Sequel to the highest grossing film of all time" for promotion, and honestly I think Disney knows that is more important for Avatar 2 than MCU, which basically promotes itself at this point. Of course Jim is known to subvert expectations, and Avatar 2 will do well regardless, but I just thought it would be nice, for once, for Jim to not be in a complete underdog position.

Problem is that they don't get the same percentage from Avatar as they do from MCU and Star Wars. It's in their interest to promote IP's they own.

Uh, I have no bias against TFA or Avatar, mate. Just pointing out Cameron congratulated one film but not the other.

Endgame passed Titanic WW, TFA didn't. Unless you think Cameron thinks Endgame is a better film than TFA, which I doubt (I mean he has eyes and ears, right?).

Yikes so much crying about the WW crown. Lots of tears expected in this thread next month. You'll keep the OS crown and inflation adjusted except that belongs to Gone with the wind anyways. Torches everything.

"Gone with the Wind exists therefore Titanic/Avatar are just as irrelevant when it comes to modern box office records! I'm totally not just salty at all, I mean com'on we have Netflix in 2019, $3B was never on the table... no no don't open up those old threads!"

 

I see a lot of crying but it ain't from the Jim Gang. 😎

It would require one large re-release and A to do Titanic numbers in China for it to surpass GwtW. Hardly a challenge given pop increase.

It was me so I hope so 😄. Someone in the weekend thread said Cameron should post Ney’tiri getting dusted when Endgame passes Avatar, I suggested concept art where Quaritch wins in Avatar would be more apt if you get my drift.
