I found this site that adjusts the sales prices for the tickets, according to what year the movie was released. (compensates for inflation.)
I was so glad to see that Star Wars was ranked #2 and is the leading all time Sci Fi film.
Take a look, you'll be amazed at the rankings....

Woohoo!! I just hope they don't give Avatar "Best Film" for a fucking digital cartoon. Fun movie? Yes. BEST FILM? Hardly.
Suck on this Avatar fans. Star Wars kicks ass!!

I'm a 70's baby, grew up watching Star Wars, had all the toys under the Christmas tree (good job mom throwing all that stuff away went I went off to college..) loved everything about it. But don't kid yourself into thinking that Lucas did not steal concepts from different movies to make his story.
Star Wars has been re released to the theaters 3 or 4 times because Lucas is nickel and diming the franchise for everything he can, I would hope its at the top of the list
