The movie "300," made 70 million this weekend - a record for March. Do you remember when Titanic came out and it reached the 100 million? Or, when the "Terminator 2"came out in 1991 The gross is touted as a success of a movie for all time. But I think that there should be an index so that we can accurately compare movies from different eras.
Would this be difficult, I don't think so. We know how many theaters there are and each reports how much they charge for tickets. How many people saw it versus the pool of available viewers and other factors.
After all that stuff is computed just put up the index from 1-100. So, if I tell you that in 1997, "The Matrix" had an index of 92.1 and "Harry Potter" had a 94.0, wouldn't that be easier and give you a better picture?
Life goes by so fast...need to take a few seconds to write down and remember experiences that make me the person I am.

I was just talking about this very same topic with my husband this morning. He remembers the 50 cent admission prices and popcorn for a dime we wait for the DVD to come out now, so we aren't part of that 70 million this week.
