Holy hell that's massive for SW7. 200M+ in UK, 110M+ in Germany, 100M for France and Australia and potential 100M in Japan, staggering to say the least.:ohmyzod:

$100m is so rare in France these days, really huge!!

Yes but Titanic topped a movie that had 15 years of inflation against it. Where as TFA is blowing past a movie with 6 years of inflation against it. If TFA had inflation of 2024 and assuming no one else could pass Avatar it would beat Avatar by more than Titanic beat ET.

 

That aside I find adjusting based on ticket price to be f-ing stupid. Here is why. Movie ticket prices have outpaced inflation since 1997(and prior). Meaning that declining ticket sales can be attributed the fact(among other factors) that a movie ticket is relatively more expensive in 2015 than it was in 1997. If you were to take Ticket prices in 1997 and then raise the price in 2015 to match inflation across the board, tickets would be cheaper, and with cheaper tickets you sell more. Also by doing this you would lower the "adjusted" totals.

 

Basically my main point is adjusting simply based on the current price of tickets X tickets sold is not fair to a modern movie which sell a ticket a relatively higher price. You are giving the older movies the benefit they had in being relatively cheaper when they were released(thus higher volumes) with the $ advantage of the higher premiums now.

 

Older movies had much smaller population to draw from as well. But all in all it is a more difficult market than 20-30 years ago, that is for sure. Netflix and other streaming services, the Internet in general, a billion cable TV channels, great home theater quality, annoying moviegoers (cell phones, etc.), higher ticket prices, and ridiculously high concession prices all make it less desirable to attend a movie now than the 1990's or earlier.

Titanic didn't gross $2.19B WW, it's a scam.

Why did people add Titanic 3D's run? It's misleading!

 

That is one of the IMHO too much differing to the orginal version new releases. One of some who's result should IMHO not be added for the usual comparison reasons

New Years Eve will be huge. 

 

Are in your country/region the cinemas not closed early at 31.12 and opened late (or not at all) at 1.1.2016 too?

30.5M 

24.5M

105M weekend for 760M

 

That would be awesome. I think the New Year's Eve hold will be hurt by the college football playoff. This is a factor that did not exist for Avatar in 2009 and it should be taken into consideration. The college football playoff had enormous ratings last year as the first ever CFB playoff event. I would expect the ratings this year to be huge again. I'm expecting a drop closer to 30% as a result.

People used to go to the movies almost every week way back in the day. Now it's a couple times a year for the average person. It's very similar to adjusting sports stats for different eras. We just need to recognize that the market is fundamentally different than it was even a decade ago.
