Something just came into my mind:

Isn't Cameron thinking of re-releasing Titanic in 3D? What if, just what if, it actually makes a lot of money and ends up surpassing Avatar? That'd be an interesting case of Cameron passing Cameron only for Cameron to pass Cameron.

Yeah, but at this pace there's no way whatsoever for the Titanic rerelease to catch up to Avatar. 3D or not.

Avatar's going for $2.3+ billion WW.

China is a little bellow expectations. Info xiayun posted suggested $75m as of saturday. It's okay, though, it's huge either way.

I don't have Sunday figures yet, but it should be somewhere between 5.85m-5.9m today and 9m is certainly still in play after dropping only 5-8 % this weekend...

Hello Argos, you had your 1 minute of fame, now dissapear into the netherworld. :lol:

Hello. Who are you?


I should ask you that question. You do realise that i've been on these forums since before you were born ;)

Do not trifle with me Argos, or you'd wished youd never been born into these forums in the first place.

Sorry, dear lady, but last year I was about to be your president.

It may have, the $193.8m number is what BOM has, but they are known to be lower on overall grosses for several foreign films. Yet another reason going by local currency is a much better idea.

They had it by August 3 and than ceased tracking it. It was a total mess, though
July 16–20, 2008 $64,254 -9.6% 95 -55 $676 $193,751,250
July 23–27, 2008 $243,477 +278.9% 250 +155 $974 $193,614,815 22

Grossed 243k and at the same time -140k total.

There are examples like that, and then cases when a film is still doing pretty well but they suddenly stop tracking it.

I won't really fault BOM though. I'd imagine it would be difficult to track so many foreign films, especially after several weeks in release.
