"Zootopia 2" has surpassed "Inside Out 2" to become Disney's highest grossing animated film of all time

The copaganda
Edit for those replying: I've only seen the first one and wasn't trying to make a blanket statement for the second. The first one did to me normalize the "but good cops" exist sentiment. It felt like it was normalizing cops being a safe resource for someone to go to, similar to Paw Patrol, which is not accurate for the country that made this film.
Weird copaganda considering the police, other government officials, and media are on the side of the wealthy, corrupt family committing all the crimes until they're all proven wrong.

So what you’re saying is that articles like this are just meaningless marketing spin.
It broke a record that was set by another film using tne same criteria and that record hadn't been broken by any other film in the interim so I wouldn't say "meaningless."

The message I took from it was "we need to accept our differences and work together because the oligarchs will destroy our environment for their convenience and we can't fight them alone", but I guess different people see different things in media.

We are never getting another traditionally animated film again are we.
Sometimes I feel like I'm completely abnormal in this world. I seem to share 0 opinions with the general population.

It's a shame. But I think at this point, anyone who still cares about 2D animation on the big screen has moved on to anime.
Last year we had Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man in theaters, and I'm sure there will be plenty of other anime in theaters this year, too.

The fact that we're on the Fediverse right now is proof of this. Embrace it!

TIL that before Zootopia 2, Inside Out 2 was the highest grossing Disney animation.
I keep forgetting Inside Out 2 even exists.
Inside Out 2 was pretty good, ngl

Anime was already doing laps around Disney by their animation reneissance, hell the Disney reneissance was kickstarted by shameless copying from anime.

Maybe not from Disney, but at the end of 2023 we got Mars Express, which is basically like Blade Runner and Cyberpunk combined, from a French studio. It was really good. That year we also got Robot Dreams, a Spanish-French coproduction.
I'm sure there will still be great animated movies in this day and age. I'm rooting for France!

And "Spy x Family: Code White"! Which is also a really great series, two episodes in season 3 had me bawling my eyes out.

Is that adjusted for inflation? Because i find it difficult to believe that a CGI sequel has done more box office than say “Bambi” or “Snow White” which were re-released repeatedly in theaters over the years.
You should google Zootopia inflation to find out
