1.The incredibly crappy movie, "Titanic" has grossed $1,835,300,000 worldwide (in 1998 dollars), making it number one on the top grossing movies list. Assume that Star Wars grossed about $300,000,000 in 1977 (when it was mistakenly not awarded Best Picture) and $480,000,000 in 1997 when it was re-released. Accounting for an inflation rate of 3% per year, what real amount (in 1977 dollars) has Titanic grossed? Has it earned more than Star Wars has (in real terms) in its two releases? (6)
