The chart below lists the highest grossing
animated films. Figures are given in United
States dollars (USD). Many films that were
released during the 20th century do not appear
on this list as figures have not been adjusted
for inflation. For example, if figures were
adjusted for inflation, Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs would appear at the top of the
chart with an adjusted gross of
$1,746,100,000.
Eighty-four percent of the films in the top 50
were released after 2000 . 2010, 2011 and
2012 are the most represented years on the
list, with five films each. All films in the Shrek ,
Ice Age , Toy Story , Madagascar , Despicable
Me, main series of Cars, Monsters, Inc. , Kung
Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon, and Rio
franchises are in the top 50 highest-grossing
animated films. Shrek is the most represented
franchise with 5 films.
Nine of the movies on this list also appear on
the worldwide highest-grossing films of all
time. Two animated films in total have grossed
in excess of $1 billion worldwide.
The films on this list have all had a theatrical
run (including re-releases) since 1992. Films
that have not played since then do not appear
on the chart due to ticket-price inflation,
population size and ticket purchasing trends
not being considered.
Background shading indicates films
playing in the week commencing 28
