[QUOTE="JL 0513, post: 3259582, member: 50088"] It's just like comparing movie earnings. Every year there's new dollar records and these announcements render the old movies that actually sold a lot more tickets as "beaten". All the "biggest movies of all time" are from recent years. Except that many of them aren't the biggest movies of all time. The biggest movies (domestically) are Gone With the Wind, Star Wars, The Sound of Music, Jaws, E.T., etc... In dollars, this weekend's The Last Jedi has already made more than Gone with the Wind's entire run, in less than 4 days. So one must always adjust for inflation but the headlines each year declare new "records". [/QUOTE]
