Wowsers. Just counting domestic, it’s now at $749.7 million. Just $299000 more to go…

I have to admit, $750 million domestic is way beyond what I was expecting too. I was expecting way less than $500 million domestic.

In reply to Charles. That's kind of what I was saying dude. Note that I posted on Dec 26, after it was obvious that Avatar was going to make it and then some. So for clarification, my question was intended to be rhetorical. The obvious answer being that Avatar was surly going to recap it's budget and then some.

Sounds like “Waterworld” danger territory..

but then again that was crap and this is CAMERON.

Have faith non-believers! If a total Piece of shit director like Micheal Bay can churn out a blockbuster effect-extravaganza, then Cameron will have him licking his balls!

Price tags getting scary but this is one flick that will get people glued to there seats IN THE THEATRE and will have all of us talking.. remember that excitement? talking about how you were wowed beyond belief….all cause a movie got you excited? been a long time since this REALLY happened.. Like StarWARS or Jurassic Park or Raiders of the lost arc…. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE EVENTFULL MOTION PICTURES..

Isn’t the lack of 3D-screens a huge huge problem for this film to break a billion dollars at the box office?

Here in Stockholm, Sweden, we only have one or two 3D-screens, which will make it difficult to satisfy the demand to see Avatar in 3D.

And don’t come down on the Abyss. That movie is a classic!

$500 million, really? That’s such a waste of money and I can’t picture that movie coming close to making that much, Even if the movie ends up being good.
