AniNate Posted Sunday at 12:43 AM Share Posted Sunday at 12:43 AM (edited) Either Elio or the Dragon remake would do well to move up to May, not much PG rated going on there. Uni could swap Dragon with Atlantis and it'd be an agreeable schedule. Edited Sunday at 12:45 AM by AniNate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still stuff like Snow White and Minecraft in the spring, so it's not as dire for PG kids stuff as it was last spring, but it is still very weird how kids movies either get all crammed together one moment, then there's a massive dry spell right after. What's going on over there? It’s very strange. It’s happened almost every single year since 2021 (Croods being an outlier in 2020) 2025 is a bit different than 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. it’ll having Dogman after Mufasa in January and one of the first big animated movies in February since god knows how long. When was the last time we saw an animated movie in February? 2019? So there won’t be a big dry spell of animated movies like 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Actually, 2025 will be the first year to have an animated movie coming out relatively soon after the December offering. Sing 2 in December 2021 to the Bad Guys in April 2022, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish in December 2022 to The Super Mario Bros in April 2023, Migration in December 2023 to Kung Fu Panda 4 in March 2024. 2025 will have Mufasa: The Lion King in December 2024 and Dogman in January 2025, and then right after in February we will have an animated movie until at least June, although Minecraft and Snow White will fill the gaps for families like you mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transformers and Wild Robot are in the top ten and carry on until Moana, then Moana probably stays in the top ten until Mufasa, Mufasa stays until Dogman in January 2025, then The Smurfs Movie in February 2025, then I can’t remember what is being released for animation in March Mufasa isn’t animated though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Lehnsherr Posted Sunday at 02:00 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:00 AM Yeah 2025 has a decent spread of animation movies throughout the year thought nothing guaranteed that will gross $200M+ besides Zootopia 2. 2026 though I know it's been talked about before but just a reminder the following animated films are scheduled theatrically. Aang: The Last Airbender The Cat in the Hat Hoppers Super Mario Bros 2 Toy Story 5 Shrek 5 TMNT 2 WDAS Original Not to mention Ray Gunn though it'll probably be Netflix exclusive and holding out hope for Beyond the Spider-Verse in 2026.

AniNate Posted Sunday at 02:03 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:03 AM That April date that was floated around for Wildwood would've made sense, but doesn't sound like Laika intends to have it out by then. Elio ofc was supposed to come out this year until things happened, so I imagine that 2026 slate gonna have some moves by the time we get there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted Sunday at 02:13 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:13 AM Think Smurfs will move later in 2025. It’s weird that there’s no trailer for it as TFO only has Sonic as an attachment and it opens in January. Sure they could theoretically wait for Moana 2/Wicked to have it but I imagine it’d get lost in the shuffle. Could see it being a March or May title.

HummingLemon496 Posted Sunday at 02:38 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:38 AM For two years in a row, there will only be one live action movie in the top 3 domestically. Has this ever happened before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're looking at possibly 3/4 of the 2024 DOM Top 4 being animated films if Joker 2 continues on its current downward trajectory (will probably be the same for WW Top 4 too) 3 hours ago, Cooper Legion said: I mean it hasn’t even happened once before 2023 right No, unless you consider 2019 TLK remake to be 'animated' Edited Sunday at 08:02 AM by Spidey Freak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, for the last decade, you usually have 2 of the top 5 DOM animated - it's been a trend that an animated movie dominates in summer (and sometimes at the winter holidays) - it's just finding which one... It's probably why so many congregate in both places... Edited Sunday at 11:12 AM by TwoMisfits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avengers: Endgame - 83.5M 2. The Lion King - 57M 3. Frozen II - 51M 4.
