[edit] Changes
This page has potential but needs much improvement. For one thing, there should be a seperate section for Largest Single Day earnings. It would also be useful to note which films where released on Holiday weekends, and what their actual three day totals were. Elijya 06:13, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rambo II
The opening for Rambo II is a 4-day weekend. Other 4 day weekends are just listed with their friday/saturday/sunday gross (e.g. The Lost World). I don't know what the 3 day gross for Rambo is but it might alter its place on this list - or other movies might have surpassed the 3 day gross.
[edit] Tickets v. Gross
I think it's inaccurate to claim that overall ticket sales are a better standard for this page. That would give an unfair slant to all films released before home video allowed people the luxury of watching a film without paying for a seat at the cinema. If we'd had VCRs before 1947, Gone With the Wind would not have had five times as many theatrical releases as a contemporary film. If there were to ever be a list on this page weighing seats over dollars, it should be split in two... before and after the wholesale of home video. The Betamax was released on May 10th of 1975, so the "modern" list should start on or around that date. 216.255.6.61 03:42, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
