Now Frozen has beaten the third Toy Story film to become the highest grossing animated feature ever, its world gross currently being $1.7 billion (and rising) compared to the $1.6 billion Toy Story 3 took.
Animated features account for some of the highest grossing movies of recent years, domestically and across the globe, last years in the UK Despicable Me 2 from Dreamworks was the highest grossing film of the year and fell just short of the $1 Billion worldwide milestone.
Disney themselves have always done well with animated features, The Lion King being the highest grossing animation of all time until Toy Story 3 was release in 2010.
When the grosses are adjust for ticket price inflation, according to many sources Snow While and the Seven Dwarfs is the most watched film at cinemas of all time, another Disney property!
