E.T. biggest grossing movie of all time.
With the 10 year anniverssary of the Titanic coming up, I'm sick of hearing about it being the biggest grossing movie (in theaters) of all time.
E.T. was. Box office revenues: E.T. - $434,949,459 in 1982. Titanic - $600,788,188 in 1997. Inflation calculator $434,949,459 in 1982 is worth this much in 1997: $723,413,348.91 using the Consumer Price Index $661,541,971.68 using the GDP deflator $866,390,458.41 using the value of consumer bundle $702,433,893.11 using the unskilled wage $942,863,143.71 using the nominal GDP per capita $1,109,662,301.80 using the relative share of GDP **** you rose.

Hey, don't get smart on us now. We don't like looking at the big picture. It's not our fault movies only cost 1/2(roughly) of what they do now back then, we still made more.

Dunno about 'revenue/grossing' but most expensive to make is Cleopatra.

Somehow I don't think ticket prices at the box office have matched up with inflation either.
I was only a year old when ET came out...what did a movie ticket cost then? I think when I saw titanic it was about $6.75. Now it's up to 8 and a quarter. |

ET - 10,500,000 Titanic - 200,000,000 |

Not only that, but E.T. was also the best videogame of all time.

I wish box office numbers weren't in dollars but in number of tickets sold.
It's easy to set a new "opening weekend record" when your movie opens on a Wednesday night, and costs $11.95/ticket. Last edited by sperry; 07-30-2007 at 05:04 PM. Reason: YOR! |
