Avatar surpasses Avengers: Endgame and is once again the highest grossing film in cinema history

Knowing which movie is the highest grossing in the history of cinema seems like a challenge or indeed a “tour de force” between two great productions: Avatar and Avengers: Endgame and now the first has claimed the second the title it had years ago: be the highest grossing film in history Avatar surpasses Avengers: Endgame and is once again the highest grossing film in film history James Cameron’s 2009 feature film was surpassed in 2019 by Avengers: Endgame which reached 2.797 million dollars after a second release, but a new distribution in China of Avatar, has turned it back into the film that has earned the most at the world box office. But it seems that the “war” between both films is entirely friendly considering He says that in 2019 Cameron congratulated Marvel Studios on social networks and now they are the ones who have congratulated the famous director. Congratulations to @JimCameron, @ JonLandau, and ALL of Na’vi Nation for reclaiming the box office crown! We love you 3000. @OfficialAvatar pic.twitter.com/WlMWRcL15y – Marvel Studios (@MarvelStudios) March 13, 2021 Avatar’s success in China Although theaters in the rest of the world are still in severe crisis due to the pandemic and although in the United States there is a slow rebound, in Chinese cinemas the box office is booming and this has allowed Avatar to earn 9 million dollars in a few days closing the gap of 7 million dollars that separated this fantasy film from Avengers: Endgame.The 20th Century Fox film (now owned by Disney) was part of a short list of blockbuster titles that the China Film Bureau asked to redistribute in March last year, as Chinese theaters were attempting a scheduled reopening as the country began to control. local broadcast regarding the COVID-19 pandemic Both Hollywood and Chinese studios withheld their new releases for a large-scale reopening at the end of the pandemic, so a few weeks ago the China Film Bureau reiterated the decision last year in an attempt to gradually reopen theaters and for this, it has continued to re-release titles from years ago. Thanks to this re-release, Avatar has once again shown that it is still running at the box office and in some way, all this benefits it a lot if we have keep in mind that in 2022 it will finally premiere its second part. As for Avengers: Endgame, as much as fans want it to be released in theaters again, it seems that Marvel Studios does not plan to do so, so everything indicates that Avatar will remain at the top of the world box office for a long time. The two films are now in the first and second place of the most profitable, without calculating inflation: after calculation, however, we find that Cameron’s film falls to second place behind the unattainable Gone With the Wind (3,700 million dollars today) while Marvel’s blockbuster would take fifth place, behind fourth for Star Wars and third place for Titanic. Now in all this “war” for the global box office we know that there is only one winner:Disney, since both the Marvel Studios and Cameron films currently carry their stamp and not only that but all the money they earn on movie tickets reverts to them in greater profits.
