‘Avatar’ Beats Out ‘Titanic’ Internationally

With awards coming in left and right, James Cameron’s sci-fi thriller Avatar has officially topped the director’s other box office hit Titanic as it rakes in over a billion dollars internationally.
According to E! Online, Avatar took home $1.29 billion on the international front surpassing Titanic’s record at $1.24 billion, toppling James’ own best and if things keep looking up it has the potential to beat out the movie’s worldwide numbers at $1.848 million.
And to keep the ball rolling, the flick starring Zoe Saldana and Sigourney Weaver could even beat Titantic’s domestic gross of $600.8 million sooner than expected with an already whopping $552.8 million under its belt, E! Online reports.
After receiving more than one Golden Globe win, the coveted Oscars could completely throw Titanic out of the water, which took home eleven Academy Awards in 1998.
If James Cameron’s record was going to be taken over, at least he is only facing himself as competition.
