Some people love animated films, and others aren’t big fans.
Some of Disney’s upcoming releases are live-action, like the new Peter Pan & Wendy film, while others are animated, like Elemental. But an animated film just beat a huge record at the box office, and it’s NOT a Disney film.
Illumination/Universal/Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros Movie came out in theaters two weeks ago and now holds the record for the “best second weekend ever for an animated movie at the domestic box office,” bringing in $87 million, according to Deadline.
The record was previously held by Disney’s Frozen II, which made $85.9M million. It was previously wondered if the film would only do well on its first weekend and fall afterward, but that’s clearly been proven wrong.
Since we’re halfway through April, there are still some new things coming to Disney+ this month that you can watch at home, and in the meantime, stay tuned to AllEars for all the latest media news!

Just saw the Mario movie with the kids. It was great, lighthearted and non controversial. Told my significant other that “Disney should take a lesson ” from the Mario movie. It was a great 90 minute escape. Have no desire to see any newly release or soon to be released Disney movies, since they are just live action remakes and lyrical changes, to make everyone happy, lol
