Avatar is now the #3 highest grossing film! Only $20 mil away from #2! You can do it!

Also, highest member attendance today on the forum! Woot!

It will beat Titanic for sure. I'll bet my whole yeah.. what.. (cellphone? xD). I'm just sure it'll win. And then, in 25 years, James Cameron makes his last movie and beats 'em all. So he'll have a top 3 films ever made.

Heh, I know it's looking WAYYYYYY far ahead, but do you think he'll be the one to top the Avatar (Series) with whatever he makes after the third movie? It seems unlikely but I wouldn't rule it out.

Naah.. don't think so. But with Cameron, you'd never know it.

If he does (and I'm assuming that the two sequels will be as popular as this one), then he will be holding the five top box office spots, something no other director has ever done.

On the subject of sequels, it all depends if they is as captivating as the first. If not, then he wil lose all of the fans second, third, fourth, etc. viewings. So there's no way he will reach the top unless it is awesomer than the first. He's on a fine line between best director ever. and worst sequel ever.

Here i think he unintentionally shot himself in the leg a bit, he made the first one so captivating and mezmerising that it's sequels are gonna be between the rock and a hard place to give something new that will draw not only the fans but the average viewer back into the theaters for seconds.

When the sequel come out this is gonna go in to the "highest-grossing film series" top 20, hopefully in time it will top that chart as well.

hell, it'll probably be the best selling trilogy if there is a sequel. Like look at lord of the rings or star wars, theyre still making some large $$$ after so many years!

Well, I hope they'll use the one billion dollars they made to create the sequal. If $400 million and a good script/acting etc. made this movie, than more than the double of that would make the next movie perfect?
Well, I hope James makes a sequel and that they all will end up in the top 4, with Titanic on 4. :P

They could do the sequel in half the budget, much of it was for developing new tech. But cameron isn't one to fall back on old methods, and if he doesn't break new ground again, I'll be mildly surprised.
