Will Avatar sink the Titanic?

If it can keep up the current box-office pace for a couple more weeks, then the answer is a big yes. James Cameron’s 3D sci-fi spectacular, Avatar, has already shattered the $1-billion mark at box offices worldwide over the weekend… and still going strong!

Yahoo! News reports,

Since its opening last month, the 3D sci-fi spectacular has taken in $352.1 million in North America alone and $1 billion worldwide. This weekend, Avatar added another $68.3 million in North American box offices, setting a new record for a film in its third week. That record had previously been held by Spider-Man with $45 million. If Avatar is to become the most successful film of all time it will have to beat the last blockbuster by its director James Cameron. Titanic remains at the top with $1.8 billion at the box office.


Whatever the outcome, James Cameron is a winner all the way. Even if Avatar‘s 3D shockers were to fade away without reaching the winning post, Cameron can still keep the record created by Titanic. Here’s a big and unbiased congratulations to James Cameron!
