Toy Story has topped Titanic to become the second highest grossing movie in UK Box Office history.

In a week where the Eli Roth-produced horror The Last Exorcism hit number one with £1.1m, Pixar's animated masterpiece stayed firm at number three in the charts, taking home £934k.

That figure was higher than new release The Switch (Jennifer Aniston's spermy rom-com) and Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim vs the World - a film which joins Toy Story 3 as one of the standouts of 2010. Unlike Woody and pals, though, that dropped 56% to take only £702k in its second week.

Now in its seventh week of release, Toy Story 3 continues to boast strong family appeal. It's now amassed a current total of £69,878,376. That just beats Titanic, which grossed £69.2m the UK.

Way ahead at the top of the all-time UK Box Office chart, of course, is Avatar. James Cameron's 3D sci-fi epic has taken a total of £93.4m.

With Avatar on re-release in the UK and Toy Story still in the top end of the weekly takings, expect both of those figures to keep climbing. Although don't expect too much from Avatar - it only got £274k this week. Which was less than Diary of a Wimpy Kid. And Marmaduke.

Avatar Special Edition is clawing its way back towards our cinema, scheduled to arrive in a few weeks time. So it's only natural that it has a trailer to precede its digital 3-D re-release on Friday 27th August.

Yes, Cameron's blockbusting, groundbreaking, blue-loving sci-fi epic is back to round off its box office record to an even neater number. Like infinity. Or something. As he put it: "Audiences repeatedly told me they wanted more of Pandora, and wished they could have stayed there longer. So we’re making that possible."

In addition to another chance to sample Pandora all over again, there's also that added lure of eight minutes of never-before-seen footage. So read on for the chance to see the trailer for Avatar all over again - and if you spot eight seconds of brand new footage, give yourself a big blue pat on the back.

Well, it's official. There you go. Done and dusted. Avatar is the king of the world's box office. Fox confirmed that Titanic's title was lost to Cameron's successor early Monday following another massive haul over the weekend - it's now taken $1.292 billion in international receipts, $50 million ahead of Titanic.

With 70% of Avatar's income coming from oversees territories, Cameron still hasn't topped Titanic's domestic takings yet - he's on $551 million compared to $600 million in the US. Then again, technicalities can be trotted out all over the place; taking into account inflation, Titanic's worldwide record is actually closer to $2.5 billion. Let alone the skew 3-D prices put on Avatar's tickets. But is it wrong to take Cameron's title away from him? Perhaps. Unless he gets that Oscar too. In which case I'll be the first to roll out the old fact that Gone with the Wind's adjusted box office is still up at the $6 billion pound mark. No matter how big your blue people are, that's a hard target to beat.

$1.098 billion. That's what Avatar's earned so far. In just 19 days, James Cameron's 3-D epic has leapfrogged Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest into 3rd place for all-time box office takings. Disney's sequel got $1.066 billion over 150 odd days, so it's pretty good going for the shiny blue ewoks.

Next on the ladder is Return of the King, whose colossal $1.191 billion seems less towering against the power of the Na'vi. Then it's the inevitable climb towards Titanic's epic record of $.1842 billion. Even that is guaranteed to follow over the coming weeks. After all, it's only been 19 days. I'll just say that again: 19 days.

Avatar has grossed $367.5 million in the US, with $731.2m worldwide. And so big Cameron takes on ickle Cameron in a race to the top of the money tree. With 3-D pricing on the older Cameron's side, this could well get ugly...
