With ticket prices as high as they are... Earnings are obviously overblown.
If Gone with the Wind had as many ticket sales today as when it was released, it would’ve likely have made 2 or 3 billion dollars in revenue. Making todays films appear more like ‘B’ movies, rather than ‘A’ list movies.
Even after accounting for simple inflation, each ticket costs more than twice as much as it used to.
Great point.
