cdsacken Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Beating 2.78B 12 years later is absolutely possible. Literally no one is saying otherwise. Absolutely possible it doesn't as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, Lindelof's Watchmen can't come soon enough to save funnybook TV As the CW DC shows are now. They were really good for the firstfew seasons but then lost steam. And I have to dissent on the Watchmen show, I am still very skeptical of any contiuntion of the novel that does not involve Alan Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely possible it doesn't as well. I wish EF would beat out Avatar just for the reaction we would see from the Cameron Cultist here. They would pull out the "adjusted for inflatation" to "prove" that Avatar is still the biggest moneymaker or all time, ignoring that on almost adjusted for inflations list, "Avatar" is pretty well down on the list, beaten by Gone With The Wind and 'Star Wars:A New Hope" and usually a couple of other films. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not a bad film, but not a work of stunning originality either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
