I don't really understand the hyperbole over movie sales. If they're charging twelve and a half dollars a ticket now, that's twice as much as when we were kids. Of course it's going to look like the movie is making gazillions.

Yeah, but even with inflation there hasn't been like, a fervor over a movie like this in a long ass time. Not with the lines and what not.

but also, i heard that if you calculated inflation, gone with the wind made more money than any movie ever...

I'm going to go calculate this out right now. I'll return shortly.

Yeah, hurry up and make a sweet movie so I can mooch off you in my mid-30s when I'm in between careers.

...and so you can buy me Vin Diesel.

boo_on_whales July 22 2008, 00:55:45 UTC

yeah, Vin will want to be in my movies because they gross so much AND win so many awards, but I'll be like "not unless you're a cabana boy for my cabana boy"!
