I called that it'll pass 3 billion with the DVD/Blu-ray's and the merc.

I think that they should credit the sales of the first 3D HDTVs to Avatar, since I bet will be the Avatar fans buying the first TVs and the 3D BluRays.  ;D

I'm all for sinking the boat, but this movie is a global phenomenon, far more than it is a domestic one. It has drawn a LOT of public hate from the nerd world early on, which is too bad. What I want to see is Avatar hit the coveted $600 million in domestic sales and once and for all kick Bruce Wayne's butt. Top all-time worldwide AND top all-time US film.

I am not surprised that the rest of the world "really gets" and love Avatar more than middle (redneck) America. But I expect more from this country. Just another 48 million (even if it takes a few weeks) and I will be happy. Very happy.

Okay, so the old podcast is here: https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/radioavatar It was goofy fun that ended too soon, but we had creative people. I hope we can get a new gang together (interested? PM me, let's make some magic!)

I will be much happier when it breaks the inflation adjusted domestic gross of titanic.

I just need to see it... 20 million or so more times (assuming 15$ tickets). herm... shizz... that will take me over 6000 years...

ok... better plan... we need  6.66% of the population of the the USA to go see avatar once... hey... thats.... rather pathetic...

100% of the population of the USA World needs to go see avatar.  >:(


edit: shizz man.. its at 530 million... domesticly... assuming... say 12$ a ticket... that means less than 45 million tickets have been sold (approximately)... that means... assuming people see it an average of 1.5 times... only 10% of the population of the USA has seen this movie.

wtf is with that?  *angry face*

edit edit: if every single person on this planet saw avatar only once... at an average of 10$ per ticket... that would be approximately 65 billion dollars. very few of us have been lucky enough to see this movie. I find this very sad.  :(

(you know... that means... if a larger % of the world sees this movie... we are going to need bigger servers...)

"You're gonna need a bigger boat."

Figured it was appropriate given the amount of movie THAT money made in its time. (7th biggest picture--ever)

I wonder how many tickets Titanic had sold?
Avatar is still young and has a lot to offer, but it would be nice to pass not only the revenue but also the total number of tickets.
From all the weapons you have used against us, we always feared your guns least!

"Titanic" just hit an iceberg named "Avatar."

I love that.

I wasn't actually that fond of Avatar before it came out...it wasn't until the night before it opens did I watch the trailer lol
Oh and the first time I watched it on the opening day...the cinema was half empty o.o but the next day I heard it was packed...

Yes. I must confess my sins as well. When I saw the trailer I thought "hmmm... another video game movie. Elves versus tanks? What is this--World of Warcraft?" But I went and saw it completely by "accident" and now I seem to spend all of my free time helping people learn Na'vi and I make fun activity books to make learning Na'vi easy.
:P

I have "seen the light"

Same here, I didn't go see it until 31 decembre when I had nothing to do in the afternoon. Thought it could be an interesting movie. It certainly was the best day of the year.
