druv10 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Frozen up to £24.9M and is now the biggest Disney animated film of all time! http://www.showfilmfirst.com/frozen-4/ I'm assuming WDAS since TS3 made well over 70M pounds. Edit: yep biggest ever WDAS. Congrats to a great run and maybe finish around 35-40M pounds. Edited January 1, 2014 by druv10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Walt Disney animation studios Oh right, some of these acronyms people use on the forum take ages to work out. I'm assuming that's up until Monday with the £1.3m figure Rth gave us. Well deserved feat for Frozen! Must be and plenty more to gross! Well you wrote biggest Disney animation which TS3 is. Technically I suppose; I was just summarising what the article said anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Obviously adjusted for inflation it is miles behind others still and this achievement for Frozen excludes the re-release of The Lion King. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Where does it look like Frozen will finish? 35M, 40M or maybe 45M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Frozen's probably above £27.5m now. Should be over £30m come Sunday. £35-40m seems to be the range right now, but with no competition at all until February, who knows... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Also, just came out of AH. Took a long while to get started, and I wasn't really sure I was going to like it at all, but it ended up really quite great after it got into the story. Definitely a film that revolves around its performances, which were excellent. J-law, as usual owns the scenes she's in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 I take it that means, on Monday and Tuesday (end of 2013), Frozen made around £2.4m. That most likely means about £28.5m or so by Thursday, and should be over £31m by Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ian Sandwell @ian_sandwell 39m UK box office in 2013 was down just 1% on 2012 with a total gross of £1.168bn.

As with the calendar year figures reported yesterday,Warner Bros was the UK’s leading distributor with a gross of $315.1m (£192.1m) from 24 releases and a market share of 16.45%, up on last year’s 12.47% market share. Its lead performer was its final release of 2013, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, which stood at $55.9m (£34.1m) as of Jan 2. Last year’s champion Sony fell to sixth overall, taking a total of $167.1m (£101.8m), down 51.5% on 2012, and a market share of 8.72%. Captain Phillips provided 15.6% of its 2013 gross with $26m (£15.9m). EONE TOP INDIEFor the second year running, Entertainment One UK(eOne UK) ended the year as the UK’s leading independent distributor with an excellent $173.4m (£105.6m), up 30.8% on 2012, and a market share of 9.04%, putting it ahead of both Paramount and Sony in fifth spot overall. Directly opposite to Warner Bros, eOne’s top performer was their first release of 2013, The Impossible, which provided 12.6% of eOne’s overall gross with $21.8m (£13.3m). As reported in October, eOne UK also became only the second independent UK distributor to gross over £100m in a calendar year. Entertainment Film Distributors have done it twice, in 2002 and 2003.
