When Frozen originally came out, it dominated the box office and stole our poor Disney-loving hearts. So when Frozen 2 came out, people were extremely excited.
Of course, the sequel to the highest-grossing animated movie of all time was going to make a little bit of money.
Whether it was good or not, people were bound to see it.
When the previous movie is the highest-grossing animated movie of all time, your sequel is bound to get a couple of people to come in and watch it.
Kind of like Lion King 2: Simba's Pride.
Not only is it getting a theatrical release, but it's hard to compare The Lion King to Frozen because they're two different beasts entirely.
However, Frozen 2 follows the same formula as Frozen. It has great music, beautiful animation, and a cast of loveable characters.
So Disney had this in the bag before the movie was even released.
The company definitely knows what they're doing.
After making $127 million domestically and $350 worldwide, it's the largest release that Walt Disney Animation Studios has had in its entire history.
We assume this will be until, of course, Frozen 3 comes out.
