Through Friday, the worldwide gross on the 20th Century Studios / Disney /Lightstorm epic Avatar sequel is $2,074.8M , overtaking Force Awakens ’ $2.071B. This means that Cameron has three of the top four movies ever globally alongside the original Avatar at No. 1 and Titanic at No. 3.

Bill Maher has a confession -- something he's kept under wraps for years -- he flies private, and if anyone expresses outrage they can suck it, because they'd do it too if they could. The "Real Time" host bore down on climate change and how ridiculous the "everyone pitch in" concept has become. As Bill says, we gotta do something, but shopping with a laundry bag isn't gonna do the trick. Bill says, "Humans are not good people," and when asked to pitch in to save the environment, their response is, "What's in it for me?"

That makes it already the biggest opening weekend of a Bollywood title ever worldwide, with more to be added today and tomorrow.
