Spider-Man: No Way Home

[edit]

Why was Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) removed from the inflation-adjusted list? It is on the gross earnings list, but should be #23 on the inflation-adjusted list also. It used to be there a month or so ago. What happened? The Bearded One (talk) 15:50, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Infinity War gross

[edit]

The adjusted gross for Avengers: Infinity War seems to be lower than the unadjusted gross. Is this possible?67.173.23.66 (talk) 21:13, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Table background color for current movies

[edit]

I have changed the background color from a cell to entire row for the current movies in the gross movie collection section. I’m not sure if it’s a standard, bu to me it looks better as somebody scroll to the right and have the entire row for the data highlighted rather than just a cell.

If its violating any policy then please revert it. OpenMindedBloke (talk) 08:29, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gone with the wind

[edit]

Why is "Gone with the wind" not in the "Not adjusted for inflation" list? George Rodney Maruri Game (talk) 07:26, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Update the inflation figures

[edit]

Since BOM stopped updating the inflation figures for 3 years now, I suggest we start updating this tables by using the same method from List of highest-grossing films#Highest-grossing films adjusted for inflation, by using the latest BOM 2019 Inflation figures and updating them using Template:Inflation while adding the newer releases and updating them too as the years come. ex.: Gone with the Wind $2,258,815,701...Also, we might have to remove the tickets tab since we don't have access to those figures for the new releases.

It seems like a sensible solution. If the admissions have been deprecated then we should just remove the column and keep it simple. God, isn't Box Office Mojo crap these days? I have made two minor adjustments: i) it appears that 2020 is the final index, at least according to this: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdbpro/industry-research/box-office-mojo-by-imdbpro-faq/GCWTV4MQKGWRAUAP?ref_=mojo_cso_md#inflation; ii) I have re-ranked Avatar according to its adjusted box-office gross, as opposed to its admissions.

Any sources on silent era films?

[edit]

I'm particularly talking about TBoaN and A Trip to the Moon, both of which probably have a pretty damn high adjusted gross, we just need to find reliable sources Alena 33 (talk) 17:39, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Accurate box-office tracking only really began with Daily Variety in 1933; prior to then we are mostly dependent on studio archives. It's estimated that The Birth of a Nation took about $60 million worldwide on its initial release. Around 40% ($25 million) of that came from roadshows in the US alone, which equates to $750 million at today's prices. When you factor in revenue from the state rights, you're looking at $40 million (a very iffy approximate) which equates to $1.2 billion today, which would put it in the top 10 adjusted. It made a considerable sum from reissues too. The data simply doesn't exist to pin it down accurately though. Betty Logan (talk) 20:02, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Inflation adjustments for 2024 re-releases of The Lord of the Rings films in highest-grossing film franchises

[edit]

I'm having trouble adjusting the grosses for those films now that they are back in theaters. Could someone else do them or explain how to do it? Please. And1987 (talk) 18:07, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why is Avengers not calculated into the MCU?

[edit]

Avengers are Marvel and the redirect sends you to MCU. 73.53.5.61 (talk) 17:19, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's counted both as part of the MCU and separately. 2601:249:9301:D570:9862:6B3E:A395:D830 (talk) 19:21, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
