Adjusted gross doesn't work for a lot of reasons, mainly the difference in entertainment competition.

Internationally, Avatar did 2 billion dollars. I doubt that Star Wars will come any where near that. I wish boxofficemojo tracked weekly box office drops for Avatar but I can only find the domestic numbers.
