Adjusted Worldwide Box Office

Adjusted Worldwide Box Office - Blank Frame Above Table

Whenever I read a list of the top box office of all time adjusted for inflation, it's always just domestic. I understand you've got different currencies and what not. But, it isn't impossible to figure out currency adjustments to get every movie in terms of American dollar values and then adjust for inflation. Does anyone know of a list that figures out worldwide gross adjusted for inflation?



Best Answer

Currency conversion rates can change multiple times in a minute, and can vary widely in a day, a week, a month, or a year. So which conversion rate do you use? The closing rate on the day the movie came out? The average rate for the year of production? And inflation rates vary country to country throughout history. Again, which rate do you use? Also some currencies disappear over time (think of the Euro replacing a number of individual countries' currencies). It seems like it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to come up with a methodology for calculation that would be consistent. If the goal is to be able to compare one movie to others, then consistency is essential.
