Most profitable cartoon ever

Despite the controversial reviews of film critics and ordinary viewers, the 1994 remake of the cartoon “Lion King” became the most profitable animated film in history: in just a month, it raised $ 1.335 billion, beating the previous record-holder, the “Frozen” cartoon, which earned $ 1.277 billion.

“Lion King” received such an amount not only due to ticket selling but also souvenir products: more than two billion dollars were brought by sales of goods with images of characters from this cartoon.

By the way, the original picture of 1994 became one of Disney’s most successful projects and received two Oscars.

  1. I’ve never seen the animation movie, but had to go to the cinema for this one. I ended up not going for some reason. It looked great from the trailers, it ain’t easy to make computer effects look that realistic and bearable to watch. ?
