Box Office Buzz: Highest Grossing Animated Film of All Time!

Box Office News Toy Story 3

As of today, Toy Story 3 has become the highest grossing animated film of all time!

We’ve been tracking the movie’s box-office success since its debut on June 18th, 2010, and boy, am I glad to finally get to say those words. Pixar’s 11th was able to claim this accolade after Disney reported that it had crossed $920 million dollars worldwide.

Domestically, Toy Story 3 hit is set to pass the $400 million dollar mark sometime this weekend. The film got off to a phenomenal start with the biggest opening day for an animated feature (at $41 million) and is now Pixar’s highest grossing film of all time in North America as well as around the globe.

A big congratulations goes out to Lee Unkrich and his amazing team at Pixar! From now on, please look out for box office updates on our official Twitter feed.

I guess Friday the 13th isn’t that unlucky after all? Next stop, one billion dollars!
