druv10 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 It's already a big win, but if Frozen can surpass 300M, getting into Domestic yearly top 5, that would be such an achievement for Disney Animation. To me the bigger achievement would be, it becoming first original animated since Nemo to pass 300M. Nearly 11 years, mighty impressive achievement. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly 11 years, mighty impressive achievement. Has it really been that long? I guess Up came close, if it can pass that then it would be the highest grossing original animated movie since Finding Nemo, which would still be a great achievement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Craig Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Frozen is going to unexpectedly bolster Disney's already impressive '13 Box Office Receipts. I can't imagine even they predicted in-house it doing this well. Has to have surpassed the upper limit of expectation. Now....where is my TDW number. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a once in a decade kind of movie! Edited December 12, 2013 by Spidey Freak 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wileECoyote Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) Amazing numbers - makes me so happy Frozen is like my childhood all over again at the moviesThe promotion that its the best Disney movie since Lion King is definitely helping draw people who grew up with Disney Renaissance movies. And while its debatable if it is better than LK, the fact that it stacks up nicely is a big draw, especially for those with families who want their kids to experience the same thing. Looking for more epic holiday holds Edited December 12, 2013 by WileECoyote 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Craig Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 So then could Frozen be this decades The Little Mermaid....kicking off another possible string of animated fare like we got in the 90's?!! It all depends on what's in the pipeline of course already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 142 fewer than last yr's #Hobbit which debuted in 4045. I'm guessing theaters are in no hurry to relinquish screens for Frozen or CF so easy. I'm more curious what TDW's screen count drop will be, it's still been hovering just over 3K 5 weeks into release. I predict an 800 or so screen drop most likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Tangled was The Little Mermaid,Frozen is Aladdin... Frozen is Beauty and the Beast! So this generation's Aladdin would either be Big Hero 6 or the Jack and the Beanstalk movie in WDAS pipeline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moana if it goes through, I'd bet would be a musical. Giants and Zootopia maybe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a great movie IMO, it just didnt do as well in the BI, probably because it was traditional animation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly question but I don't watch TV so I have not seen any Frozen trailers. Just pictures. Is it CGI or traditional animation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harpospoke Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) As many of you who have known me for a while might know, animation is not my thing. But Frozen really hit home with me. It's the first animated film I've seen in perhaps 20 years that I absolutely loved. I've liked others such as DM2 and HTTYD but never like this. Maybe I'm a microcosm of how the general public is reacting to the film. I haven't seen it yet...but I keep hearing over and over how good it is from friends. Need to see it soon. edit: and animation IS my thing. Edited December 12, 2013 by Harpospoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
