BOX OFFICE UPDATE!!!

Avatar passes Titanic!

Avatar now #1 all-time worldwide box office!

Next up, Avatar will continue its pursuit of Titanic's Domestic box office record of $600 million.

To those talking in terms of tickets, I have actually heard that if you compare their runs, Avatar has sold more tickets by this point in its run than Titanic had in its. If that continues Avatar (once it leaves the theaters.... some day) MAY not only be in the top 10 but possibly the top 5 for ticket sales.

That said the realities of the movie business ARE different now and Avatar's run in theaters may not be as long as Titanic's.

If I had to guess I would say that Avatar will end up in the top 15 for sure... anything else is gravy.
