"Frozen" Is Highest Grossing Animated Film Of All Time
This weekend "Frozen" inched past "Toy Story 3" to become the highest grossing animated film of all time. It finally opened in Japan which gave it the boost it needed to become number one. I finally watched it this past week and I thought it was really good but I'm not sure it is first place worthy. The numbers aren't adjusted for inflation but it is for sure popular. My all time favorite animated film is always going to be The Iron Giant. I think most guys say this. I also say this despite Jennifer Aniston being in it. She also happens to be in Office Space which I love so it just goes to show you that just because someone can't act doesn't mean they can't be in some really good movies. I imagine that this Halloween every little kid that knocks on doors will be dressed as someone from Frozen. The total to date for the movie is $1.072 billion.
I watched it just last night. It was very cute but not better than any of the Toy Story movies, equal perhaps but not better.
ReplyDeleteU r absolutely right
DeleteI loved it. But nothing will replace Monsters Inc in my heart. Child no. 3 might disagree.
ReplyDeletePlease stop speaking for men.
ReplyDeleteSo were back to the Enty that usess a non-news worthy post to slam someone completely unrelated...
ReplyDeleteThis Enty sure hates Aniston. He/she starts off talking about Frozen and then boom Aniston sucks in everything she does then boom back to Frozen.
ReplyDeleteP: Elsa
ReplyDeleteM: Anna
B: Aniston
Well now y'all went and done it. Y'all complained about the hotties Harry had as his avatar, so he went the other way with it. I hope you are all happy with yourselves.
ReplyDeleteLove love love it. Watch it all the time with my bff's 4 year old.
ReplyDeleteAll boring blinds turn into an argument, @Count.
ReplyDeleteI loathe Frozen. Saw it in the theater, and rented it twice On Demand for my daughter. This movie has nothing for adults.
ReplyDelete@Cocoa: it is better than posting links to the Frozen porn I saw. I doubt anyone here wants to see computer generated reindeer dick, and I didnt take the time to read through 50 Shades of Elsaanna to see if it was worth posting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your restraint. :)
DeleteI don't understand the hype over this movie. It was good, not great.
ReplyDeleteMy boy did not like it. Grandma took him. I haven't seen it yet. Can't imagine it's better than Little Mermaid or B and the B!
ReplyDeleteIt was ok. We saw it in the theater but won't be buying it.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome. There is a hot CGI one of Anna w/ some firecrotch going on, and a hand drawn one of her with a carrot in her butt. I LOLed at that one.
ReplyDeleteCount, her name is Edna and her favorite position is reverse cowgirl.
ReplyDeleteI liked Frozen too...but there is no way this is the best animated movie of all time. The Toy Story movies are far more creative, Monster's Inc was even better. The Little Mermaid and Lion King are my all time favorites. Frozen was entertaining, but not the best.
ReplyDeleteOh...and The Incredibles. LOVE that movie. Can watch it over and over again.
ReplyDeleteMy kids are older now, I'm much older and very content for it show up on basic cable someday.
ReplyDeleteAww, The Iron Giant! Loooooooove that movie! Old school animation, a classic sci fi vibe (spot-on for the era), funny and ALL THE FEELS. It gets me every time.
ReplyDeleteUm, and Frozen was good, too. Not a fave, but good. Although it appears that my immunity to "Let it Go" probably has something to do with my not fawning all over it.
@crila: If you don't already know, The Incredibles is getting a sequel.
ReplyDeleteOffice Space! Love that movie!
ReplyDeleteNot to be totally OT, but why is no one talking about The Walking Dead finale last night? OMG!!! Sorry....
ReplyDeleteToy story 2 & the 1st Shrek for me!
ReplyDeleteGreatest Animated Features
ReplyDelete1. Fritz the Cat
2. The Drawn Together Movie
3. Beavis and Butthead Do America
4. The South Park Movie
5. An American Tail
Hello Count. I thought Fritz the Cat was kind of amateur-ish (and odd). Boyfriend at TAMU took me to see that flick. Surprised to see 'An American Tail' on your list.
DeleteOhh Fievel! Sooomewheeeere ouuut there...
Delete@caydian: what early 70s cartoon not produced by a major studio doesnt look amateurish and odd? 1/2 the live action films of that era look like crap.
DeleteI honestly have seen Frozen about 200 times by now. My daughters and nieces are OBSESSED with it; even my son is making a music video for his sister's birthday inspired by Let it Go. It's not the #1 Disney movie, but it is definitely up there.
ReplyDeleteBesides, who doesn't love Olaf?
I saw Frozen in the theater & again last nite w/ my daughter.
ReplyDeleteI was rolling! I thought it was funny.
The Lego Movie was bullshit.
Only good thing in it was Batman.
I loved the Iron Giant.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was funny, but a little much on the music. B&B and Little Mermaid were better, though.
ReplyDeleteHighest grossing doesn't necessarily mean best animated movie. I don't know about any of you, but I don't remember parents ever taking me to see a movie in the theater twice, much less three or four times, and rarely every single movie we wanted to see. You picked a "theater worthy" movie (like Indiana Jones) and waited for the rest to watch at home. Plus, even adjusted for inflation, ticket prices have jumped astronomically since Disney's golden days of B&B and Mermaid.
Oh, and IRON GIANT RULES!
Frozen was good, but Toy Story and Monsters Inc were better.
ReplyDeleteNothing beats the lion king
ReplyDeleteP: Count
ReplyDeleteM: VIP
B: TTM
Weird Freaky Shit: The K-Family, bring it Bruce!
Dingle: does that mean you wanna give me some pussy? I thought you were a dude? Maybe yer callin me a pussy, I dont know, im just hoping you arent talking about violating my mangina.
DeleteIt took my kid a week with the dvd to have the words to every Frozen song memorized. He sings them all day long at his moms house, but the only way I can get him to sing is if I do. Im such a horrible singer he'll agree to sing if I agree to stop.
ReplyDeleteThe 3-4 year old Korean girl at my breakfast spot was singing Do You Want To Build A Snowman the other day when I was there. Today after some hide and seek, she attacked me. Backed me into a corner, grabbed my pant legs and put her feet on mine, so I walked around the deli with her until my pork roll sandwich was done.
It was wonderful. It's the first Disney film where a sister saves a sister instead of a prince saving a princess.
ReplyDelete@Count, I'll be gentle on your manhole. Bring you favorite lube.
ReplyDeleteAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
