Despite its success, the film has a long way to go before unseating all-time champ "Titanic," which grossed about $1.8 billion worldwide

Wouldn't it be great if, when it's all said and done, ROTK beats out Titanic? Then we wouldn't have to read about that torturous movie anymore!

Yeah, but it's from Reuters, so it's probably a lie.

I hope it kills titanic but, IMO, it was the least-faithful-to-the-book of the three movies. Jackson started out in his initial interviews talking about how closely he would stick to the books. At the end of the director's commentary on the Two Towers extended set the three of them (jackson and the two female collaborators) were essentially joking about twisting what they "had to" to cater to an 'unread' audience. Hypocritical, sadly.
