I've always wondered why they base their performances on the dollar sign. I find it amusing when a film becomes the biggest grossing film of all time, yet, the ticket prices have skyrocketed and keep spiraling every year. Why don't they base it on number of "Ticket Sales" instead? At least that would be an accurate way to judge things, year by year.

Not all tickets cost the same. However adjusted for inflation the list of all time highest grossing films becomes quite different...
