AVATAR becomes #2 All-Time Grossing Movie in Just 20 Days!

Historic, ground-breaking, once in a lifetime achievement.

Avatar will become the second highest grossing worldwide movie of all time tonight when it passes The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King's final $1,119,110,941 total. After three or four months of release that would be an incredible achievement alone but to do that after just 20 days is beyond anything that could have ever been predicted. James Cameron - The Undisputed King of the World - is now competing against himself if he wants Avatar to become #1. He's $750 million short of his last theatrical feature Titanic's worldwide gross but who would put a cap of $2 billion on the picture at this stage anyway? As I say, it's barely been out three weeks. This is historic, ground-breaking, changes everything, once in a lifetime occurrence. This is history folks.
