I think it's quite an effective way to display this information. Pimp the axis are explained in the right side margin. What I do miss is the total the movie made when I click on it. It only indicates the total with the color.
but then explain to me, when they are showing a cumulative revenue, where is y=0?
either it is on the bottom, which means a lot of revenue is generated by non-existing movies, or it is located in the middle of the sinus like shape of the graph, resulting in a negative revenues.
nope it isn't stupid to make them both positive. Because there aren't negative values in this table and with the 2 side system you can see the better peeks when 2 movies peek at the same time.

quite a new way of presenting statistics, but it doesn't make it very easy to understand.
I can't figure out what the y-axis represents. Or does only the height of a movie matter?
anyway, I love the flash (correct me if I'm wrong), but I think you could improve it if you'd link to a imdb rating, when clicking for the details.

Yes, it does miss some features.
Pimp, the y axis is cumulative. The total y length is the total revenue.
Titanic is massive.
Pretty graph, not easy to "read" though. Or I'm just noob...
Titanic was indeed massive, but todays cruiseships triple the tonnage of Titanic.
hehe, sometimes I'm so lame
Nice way of showing stats. in my opinion its perfect to read. And its very instinctive to read you can see in one flash what movie did well.

pimp it's located in the middle, above and below are both positive values. They've done this to be able to fit more movies in the line.
it's stupid to make them both positive values!
That doesn't make any sense.
If they picked only one side, you'd get a better view of the total revenue.
