>pointless
>10 years ago breaking 1 billion was a feat, now it's dime a dozen

the exchange rates don't matter because it was converted to dollars when it was released

Cope harder and have sex

They played Lara's Theme too much, and I wasn't a big fan of that music piece either.

>as of 2017

>Got any more pointless caveats
Cope.

a better metric would be the total amount of visitors

some basedboys watched capeshit hundreds of times though, also many of them are obese and/or single so they had to buy two tickets

Daily reminder that if youlads don't watch Avengers Endgame more than 5 times, you are not a fucking fan and it will be YOUR fault for not making this kino the most successful movie in a lifetime.

Lets do this, guys!

Reminder that Avatar was released when China was pretty much a closed market and had 12% the number of screens they have now, and it still made 200 million

Avatar 2 is gonna break 3 billion and wipe the floor with Thanos' chin

life is about money

Exactly, Avatar was released when the dollar was weak,so you get more dollars for other currency-to-dollar conversion. Now it's harder to reach those high International numbers since the dollar is 20-25% stronger.

the number of new markets and additional theaters more than make up for it China had 6,000 screens in 2010. Now they have 50,000.

>2017
Inflation is up EVEN more now.

Do you realize how cheap tickets used to be? Of course adjusting for inflation is necessary.
This is also the reason they don't mention number of tickets sold anymore, just the gross, because expensive tickets make it seem like a bigger achievement than it actually is.

...

LITERAL COPE LMAO

No, I disagree, because a dollar is valuable now then it was before. So the only true metric would be counting number of tickets sold.
That being said, I couldn't care less if capeshit took over, but I'm just sayin'..

*less valuable now

compare what you could buy with $10 in 2000 and in 2019

that's why you adjust for inflation

Considering we don't get streaming figures or piracy for these movies, there really isn't a good way to determine popularity.

popularity means nothing
life is about money

That's what I'm saying mate

This, Avatar went in on the 3d meme, so plenty of tickets sold cost much more than the average.

user, I....

But Marvel movies for example earn way more money through merchandise. The movies are more of a commercial really.

>the only true metric would be counting number of tickets sold t.you

I'm in marketing. We literally call capeshit movies "commercials" because overall profit on the merch far exceeds the profit on the film.

Avatar is going to make about $660m and embarrass everyone involved.

Sure, but there's other variables now because 3d IMAX tickets are way more expensive.

Kinda

We have 4d tickets that go for 19 euro

>inflation
