"Avatar" hits 1 Gigadollar

Since it's opening 17 days ago, Avatar has grossed 1 billion dollars worldwide. Seventeen days.

According to CNN, Dark Knight took almost its entire theatrical run to do that.

I guess that shuts the hqiz out of any mealy-mouthed reviewer that didn't like the film.

And, that pretty much guarantees the next sequel. Booyah!

Okay, I gotta ask: Who does your emoticons?
All of them are totally neat and make me wish I had a set of them of my own fursona...

I'm convinced Avatar (and Up and Pixar as well in general) are proof that worldwide audiences are sick of being treated like chumps by marketing departments of movie companies.

No, it does not guarantee a sequel. Titanic didn't get one. Avatar has a more open ending, what with the likelihood of another human attack, but I find it hard to picture how they'd make a whole movie out of it.
