For some reason inflation seems to be the best kept secret when it comes to setting film records. While Avatar might have grossed an insane amount of money, it doesn’t even come close to Gone With the Wind, which would have earned 1.5 billion dollars domestically with today’s ticket prices. When Gone With the Wind was released in 1939, the Governor declared a state holiday, and tickets were 40 times the regular cost.

Knock Knock. Who’s there? NOT GOSSIP GIRL!!
For everyone out there wondering what the CW’s meaning of “new episodes coming soon” is, I am here to clear things up. Gossip Girl will not air original episodes until March. Apparently the time slot had to be cleared for Life Unexpected.
Perhaps this will hold you over until then
