current gross as of jan 5 2010 according to boxofficemojo – $1,063,151,759(360m ov which is domestic)

titanic opened 1 day later (dec 19) and by jan 6 had made only 163m domestic(less than 1/2 of what avatar has made)

by the time titanic left theaters in OCTOBER 98 it had made over 600m domestic! yet at this corresponding date it had made 1/2 of avatar?

we can only hope this trend will continue, but this movie is already among the great. it has thus far only been out grossed by 3 other movies

original as in no preexisting fan base. yeah its similar to dances w/ wolves and even Pocahontas, but its not like twilight, transformers 2, or even the dark knight(although it was a BAMF awesome movie). theres no avatar book, its not a sequel, not based on a TV show, its not a remake, etc

Here’s how the list of highest-grossing films looks as of Jan 6, 2009

Titanic – $1,848,879,955
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King – $1,119,110,941
Avatar – $1,098,736,685

Titanic ran for 10 months, so far Avatar’s is third all time after just 19 DAYS!! I don’t think there’s any question that pretty soon James Cameron will have the 1st and 2nd highest grossing films.

I’ve been trying to find a good time to see it.

The only problem I see is that instead of HWood thinking to make more creative movies, they’ll just make more crappy ones resembling this, with blue people fighting for their world.

It’s opening weekend didn’t even make 100 million dollars in the US. But no need to fear the movie has made over 1 Billion dollars world wide. Does it deserve to gross more than The Dark Knight, and The Return of the King in my opinion no. However I’m glad it’s a major hit and it is a great movie(just not better than return of the king or the dark knight).

Wow A BILLION DOLLARS? In 17 days? Holy crapazoli! I think the movie future is as bright as a new lightbulb! That is, if Hollywood realizes that it’s the originality that made it great.
