Talk:List of box office records in the United States and Canada

Inflation-adjusted records
I notice that there is one note of the all-time inflation-adjusted record at the top, but otherwise, no mention of inflation-adjusted records at all. Obviously, outside of attention-grabbing headlines (which are basically of short-term interest), only the inflation-adjusted records are important. Perhaps we can keep the non-inflation-adjusted ones as a nod to the importance those headlines have given them recently... but we should definitely have the actual, inflation-adjusted tallies everywhere we have non-adjusted ones, and clearly label which is which. --Aquillion (talk) 11:17, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Inflation-adjusted doesn't matter as much as population-adjusted. These should all be per-capita figures, otherwise you end up with what we have now - every record is held by a movie in the last few years, because population is constantly growing.  These are very silly records.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.120.195.207 (talk) 15:52, 21 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Inflation and population, yes. Nearly 10% since this thread started!  Inflation was obvious but population wasn't (to me, at least), but you are right.  They keep coming up with more mouths to feed (with popcorn!) so pop has to be considered.  No one does that, however, which makes them very silly indeed.  Tickets sold, adjusted for population might be the best.  --plaws (talk) 18:54, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Does anyone know where you could get state-specific box office numbers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.196.175.90 (talk) 17:42, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Avengers: Infinity War
Don't forget to add this film to "Top 5 Overall Intake Records" (the first table on the page)

Article title
If this article is about the "North American box office," shouldn't the article be titled "North American box office records"? Trivialist (talk) 16:11, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

This is just a Box Office Mojo mirror
This page is in effect just a mirror of Box Office Mojo. Wikipedia is WP:NOTMIRROR. I propose redirecting this to the main topic, List of highest-grossing films in the United States and Canada. I did so WP:BOLDLY, and it was reverted some time later, so I'm formally suggesting it here. TompaDompa (talk) 18:28, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
