Back in the Star Wars days counting how many tickets sold was just another way of implying how much money a move made. Today they cut the crap and get straight to the dollar amount.
The only weak thing here is the haters.

Yep. Assuming the $300 mil budget is to believed and the $200 mil ad campaign is to be believed, and you assume the studio gets 50% of box office receipts my math says Avatar has made $800 mil profit for Fox. I doubt you will find a movie that made $800 mil profit just from the theater run.
