Avatar completely obliterated Titanic's 12 year fourth weekend record, almost doubling its predecessor's fourth weekend number. Notice Avatar's high theatre count average, which is in fact by far the highest for any film with a 4th weekend gross above $15m (wide release). The $50.3m fourth weekend number makes Avatar the first film to have 4 weekends above $50m (in fact, it is the only film to have 3 or more $50m+ weekends and the only one to have 3 $60m+ weekends as well).
This sets the film up to break Titanic's amazing 5th weekend figure of $30m next weekend, and there's a strong possibility that Avatar will also snatch Titanic's 6th weekend record. A $600m+ gross is all but guaranteed at this point, making Avatar the biggest film of all time.
