Avatar has only used six weeks to get the Global box office crown and broke Titanic twelve years' record. And its director James Cameron is destined to written down in film history.
Within twelve years, there are many great movies, such as The Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, however, they did not come over or even get closer to the record held by Titanic. Now this record has been rewritten by Cameron himself. Avatar becomes the myth of box office.
In the global box office list, Cameron's films take the top 2 position while The Lord of the Rings III is No. 3 with 1.11 billion box office, 0.7 billion lesser than Titanic. Moreover, Avatar has been over 2 billion box office and keeping increasing now.
Avatar not only rules the global box office but also get the great praise both from film critics and film fans. The only question mark remained now would be if Cameron can get the Oscar this year after twelve years with Titanic. We will all keep an eye on this!
