It’s a HIT! AVATAR becomes the HIGHEST grossing movie of all time.

It was only recently that news came pouring in (with everyday bringing news on Avatar) as James Cameron’s epic film about a planet inhabited by blue alien is on the race to be the number one box office hit in history. Occupying the number one spot back then is Titanic which was also created by James Cameron.  After less than six weeks since it was first shown, the Avatar won over Titanic as it exceeds in the number of gross profit.

Records search reveals Titanic, which was shown from 1997 to 1998, got the total of $1.843 billion. Last Tuesday, the worldwide box office total of Avatar at $1.859 billion, took the spot which was once hold by Titanic.

Background check for the duration of its showing, Avatar took hold of audiences in most countries, including the United States, Canada, France, Germany, Russia, Britain, and Australia. Ticket sales got more boosted from premium prices for 3-D screenings. Fox said 72 percent of worldwide sales come from 3-D shows.

Avatar, which public records search reveals, that Avatar’s almost five years in the making, was one of the most expensive films with a budget of at least $300 million mostly for the special effects and the creation of the language used by the Na’vi race.

Just recently, Avatar won the Golden Globe best movie drama. By February this year, Avatar is said to be on its way to the Oscars as a leading contender. At this point, question now arises whether there would finally be a Sci-fi for an Oscar winner. With the Golden Globe and the Number one box office hit, people are now hoping for the best.
