James Cameron Competing with Himself for Third Highest Grossing Movie

James Cameron is taking on versus James Cameron for the third area on the list of highest-grossing motion pictures of perpetuity — with 2 of his offerings within inches of one another for the honor.

Here’s the offer … we currently understand JC’s most recent flick, “Avatar: The Way of Water,” has actually been progressively climbing up these previous couple of months — blowing previous movie after movie on the all-time ticket office record chart … that is, till it struck a snag with “Titanic,” which was firmly at #3.

That quickly altered this weekend, with ‘Avatar 2’ changing Cameron’s crown gem for the third area … if just for a day or two. As of Sunday, nevertheless, “Titanic” recovered its position.

In other words, the 2 motion pictures (undoubtedly, both Cameron’s) were flip-flopping in ranking — however for now, it appears like “Titanic” is holding company at #3, and ‘Avatar 2’ is still #4 … with the most recent forecasts through the weekend for both motion pictures having to do with $2.217B and $2.214B, respectively.

Although “Avatar” made more cash than “Titanic” this weekend … “Titanic” has actually still made more cash long-lasting, however it’s anticipated ‘Avatar 2’ will surpass it once again in the coming days.

BTW, if you’re questioning why we’re stating “Titanic” remained in theaters this weekend (as if it’s 1997 all over once again) … that’s since it was. The movie is commemorating its 25th anniversary and got re-released, which implies more ticket sales … even in 2023. 😅

Three of Cameron’s movies are now all-timers. The initially “Avatar” is still king with $2.92 billion, “Avengers: Endgame” is second at $2.79 bil … and you understand the rest, for the time being.
