A) consider the source. Kind of like NAMBLA saying fucking little boys in the ass is a good thing.

B) if not for the 50% premium for 3-D tickets I wonder what the grosses would be

C) grosses are not profits. You should know that.

D) inflation is not taken into account.

E) Tickets sold in US in 2002 1.576 billion
Tickets sold in US in 2010 1.339 billion( fewest ticket sold since 1997 )

That's a 15% drop according to my math.
