If Gone with the Wind is the highest-grossing film of all time, then why does the top 20 list say Titanic is?
Q. If Gone with the Wind is the highest-grossing film of all time, then why does the world-wide list of highest-grossing movies of all time say Titanic is number #1? I can't follow logic on that at all. Which one is it, Titanic or Gone with the Wind? Please help.

A. Gone With the Wind is #1 when adjusted for inflation, but it doesn't take into account its 10 rereleases. So technically, it's not, but it's close.

Which movie industry really has the top grossing films? (US, India, Korea, Japan, etc) ?
Q. Just curious because one of my friend is Indian and she keeps telling me that Bollywood movies are more popular, yet I've never even heard of one in my life. I am more of a Korean, Japanese, Chinese, US films type of person. So considering that India is the 2nd most populated country in the world, that's probably where the "popularity" is coming from. She also tells me that they make 1000+ movies per year, but all I can think of is that the quality may be really poor that's why they can produce so many movies. Also I keep checking for top grossing films but most of the sites I visited only list out the US movies even if they say top movies in the World. I would really like to know what is the highest grossing film besides Titanic, etc… [cont.]

A. Bollywood may have some very high attendance records but not the highest grossing films. On average, Hollywood blockbusters grossed 33 times as much as Bollywood ones.

A. No, the Dark Knight did the best globally and is lagging Titanic (all-time box-office no.1) by just 50 million. Mamma Mia however broke the Titanic's hold of the no. 1 spot in the UK, but falls short of breaking either The Dark Knight or Titanic's overall record. Hope that clears it up for you. By the way, do not trust user comment on IMDB though.

A. Hi Laura C 'Mamma Mia' and 'the dark knight are two entirely unrelated films. they dont share a common genre or even a common target audience, therefore it is a moot point as to which is 'better' then the other.' I like IMDB. As a source of info, it is truely excellent. but i'd never get into the petty in-fighting and opinion bashing on the boards there (I can do that here, in the R&S section on YA!)

What do you think about this article?
Q. James Cameron's "Avatar" has persistently, almost insolently, refused to have any sort of decent drop-off since its opening weekend. Now, after six weeks of international release, the film is still number one at the box office, and has now bested "Titanic's" record worldwide gross, according to both Box Office Mojo and The Hollywood Reporter. The new magic number will be verified later today, but it will be just ahead of the $1,843,201,268 posted by "Titanic," also written and directed by James Cameron. However, it is also unquestionably true that "Avatar" does not hold the record for most paid admissions.

Is Avatar really number 1?
Q. Hey guys. Today, "Avatar" surpassed the $2 Billion mark, just 2 days after passing "Titanic's" all-time worldwide gross of $1.86 Billion. Obviously, this makes "Avatar" the highest grossing film of all time. BUT, adjusted for inflation, "Avatar" stands at a humble 20th place on the list, well behind "Gone with the wind" number one spot. So is "Avatar" really #1? (Take into account the amount of movies released today, as opposed to maybe one a week back in the 30's.)
