    Yeah, but box office records are often not adjusted for inflation. People frequently compare movies from a several decades ago, which even at 2% inflation, ads up over the years.

    IMHO, it’s not worth getting caught up in the detail. The point is that Barbie is making a fuck load of money. It’s over $200m US domestic since it opened on Friday, and the movie cost $145m to make. No one’s going to lose money on Barbie. They going to make a grip. Especially after you count international tickets and all the damn toys and merch.
