I mean so we can compare it to box office of all time. Haven't seen a source though.

Wonder Woman would have grossed over $1B if adjusted for inflation. Barbie has already passed its total inflation-adjusted gross, though.

Look at the last movie that broke a record. The inflation conversion probably hasn't changed much since then.

Nothing's cracked the top 10 lifetime interest adjusted grosses in a long time. Our last top 20 film was in 2015.

If @moobythegoldensock is right, this sounds like this could be a new top 10 entry, will have to wait and see.
