So much for the "out of touch" talk huh?

...2007's domestic returns should finish at a record of about $9.6 billion, up 2 percent from the previous year, according to box-office tracker Media By Numbers.

That surpasses the previous high of $9.45 billion set in 2004. Yet because of rising admission prices, the number of movie tickets sold should come in at about 1.4 billion, down 2 percent from 2006 and well shy of modern Hollywood's record of 1.6 billion in 2002.

1. I get your point, but without adjusting for inflation
...i.e., posting what these 2007 dollars mean in an apples:apples comparison to previous years, it doesn't really merit "all time high" status.
