I'm not too much on the Mario's bandwagon but fuck it, if this is going to do gangbuster #'s Worldwide, I hope this dethrones fucking Frozen. Cannot stand that movie being #1..
Amazing how Frozen 1 survived titans like Minions, Despicable Me 3, Finding Dory or Incredibles 2 in worldwide grosses. Only its sequel, Frozen 2, could break the record.
I don't see another animated movie taking that crown besides a new Shrek movie which hasn't even been confirmed.
Still it was (and is) a beloved film. Shrek 2 had a much bigger increase from its predecessor than Toy Story 2.
Whats more, Shrek 3 broke the animation OW record (we all know why it did not have good legs) in a period where CGI was not seen as an event anymore (year before 2006 had a tremendous glut of CGI movies)
