I feel like people are over estimating The Lion King, but then again Beauty and the Beast made 1B so I guess anything is possible.
When will Endgame have a shot of getting into the top 10 list when adjusted for inflation? None of the MCU films are in there at all. The Force Awakens is at 10, but Avatar and Titanic are at 2 and 3 behind Gone with the Wind. Can it get onto that list and even beat some of those others, or even Gone with the Wind?
The 20 Highest-Grossing Movies of All Time (Adjusted for Inflation)
1. Gone with the Wind
2. Star Wars
3. Sound of Music
4. ET
5. Titanic
15. Avatar
I was just looking at the domestic. But you would think that since Infinity War just made a little over $2B that's why it's not on that list. Once Endgame makes more than TFA because those numbers are inflated to today's numbers it'll be in the top 10.According to the list on Wikipedia, it's:
Highest-grossing films as of 2017 adjusted for inflation[33][Inf]

10 Star Wars: The Force Awakens TFA$2,144,000,000 2015
But I was not asking how far it needs to go to get there, but how long it would take for Avengers Endgame to even get onto that list, or whether it even could. Even Infinity War couldn't make it on there, despite being the 4th highest of all time.
If it can get to 650m in China, coupled with 950+m domestically, it's gonna pass the 3b mark.
DOM+China is on track for around 1.5B
IW did 1.01B OS-China. If EG doesn’t get an increase there that’s already 2.5B WW. If it increases by 20% over IW it matches Avatar WW more or less. If it increases 30% over IW Avatar is toast.
I’m not saying it will just to be clear but, in my opinion of course, I think’s it’s a little early for definitive statements.
Simply because both haters AND supporters thought it was such a long shot! Now, well, I guess we know...The fact that it has a chance to beat Avatar is outstanding.
I doubt it. Maybe domestically but it never does well in China. And without the original three of Luke, Leia, and Han getting screentime together, it doesn’t have the hook they can use in the marketing. People WANTED to see them together again and Disney really screwed themselves by not doing that sooner.
It will.
I thought China will do $575 mil , maybe $600. Now we have $625 mil mabe $650.
US domestic is a lock for $900 mil at this point.
We can conclude the Avatar WW is going down and the domestic of TFA is a 50-50.
$2,8-2,9 bil WW.
$925-950 mil Domestic.
Quote me on that.
The mother of all records is here and it was INEVITABLE !
Will be very close with TFA if that is the projected range.Assuming it's legs follow IW's BO DOM run, which had a final cume x1.498 of it's 2nd WE total, and considering BOT predictions of AEG's 2nd WE total ($620M-$640M) , gives
620x1.498= $928.7M
640x1.498= $958.7M
Nice one, I like it. Maybe fate will intervene inIf it manages to do $3 bil / $3000 mil then...
...the "I love you 3000" gets a whole new differrent meaning.
