    Would like to see that gross adjusted for inflation. But either way, incredibly solid box office.

    Have to admit I kind of want to see it.

      I plan to see it as soon as it comes out of cinemas 🚢🧲

      Thankfully haven’t seen any spoilers or memes yet, unlike with some of the Marvel franchise movies

      Is anyone surprised?

      Every time the was a movie that appealed a lot to women, it broke all box office records. Just look at Titanic.

      Well it’s not something I like so what arbitrary metric can I use to dismiss this accomplishment?

        Ugh, there’s that mean-spirited, “let’s assume the worst about people” attitude I hoped we left at reddit.

        I’m a cinephile with an interest in film history and I want to know where the new film stands on this list.

        If it knocks out Gone With The Wind, that has real implications not just for cinema history, but as an indicator of the health of the movie theater industry.

        I also stated that I want to see the film, so assuming I’m trying to “dismiss” it isn’t reasonable.
