I'm just curious what you guys think...
All we hear every year is how movies are setting records...like Pirates, or the new Will Farrell movie...
But they are always measured in terms of box office take...dollars, which to me, is almost like the "win" statistic for pitchers in baseball. Wins are basically arbitary...it depends entirely on the offense scoring runs, which the pitcher has nothing to do with most of the time.
The price of tickets go up every single year, so of course big blockbusters will always set records.
Why don't they do it in terms of tickets sold in a day? Doesn't that seem to make more sense? I think people like to hear the $$$ when it comes to how much is made, instead of how many tickets were sold.
I'd like to see how these records look after they use tickets instead of dollars.
