Second column

I made Second column, because many People don't think that Lion King 2019 is animated movies. This colum doesn't include movies made in this technique. W L-A is Without a'la Live Action movies Pieryknik (talk) 22:44, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Lion King is objectively an animated movie and that's reflected in the chart. Any other consideration beyond that is original research. Adding a second column doesn't alleviate the confusion, it adds to it. We have a note that explains why the film is included in the chart. Betty Logan (talk) 23:18, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So how do you explain that Disney and many websites published information about Inside Out 2 breaking the record when the result exceeded Frozen II, but was still lower than Lion King 2019? Pieryknik (talk) 08:11, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was described as "live-action" by some lazy sources because it utilized photo-realistic animation techniques. This is all explained in the Wikipedia article about the film. But at the end of the day Wikipedia is an encyclopedia i.e. it documents facts. It is not part of the Disney marketing arm, it does not perpetuate myths and misnomers. The Lion King is verifiably an animated film, hence its inclusion here. Betty Logan (talk) 11:36, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why Brave is 50th?

Hotel Transylvania have higher gross Pieryknik (talk) 23:41, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes i saw. And? Pieryknik (talk) 00:07, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is all-time ranking. Not the first release ranking Pieryknik (talk) 00:12, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The all-time gross has double-counted the original Australian gross in the Australian reissue gross. That artificially inflates the gross by $12 million. It's a common bug with Box Office Mojo, hence why there is an errata page which documents the double-counting. Betty Logan (talk) 01:00, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can we report this to BOM? Pieryknik (talk) 09:37, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They know of it, but it's an ongoing issue: https://web.archive.org/web/20201111022424/https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/imdbcom/tons-of-data-corruption-at-box-office-mojo/5f4a7cb68815453dba106d8f. Very frustrating: Betty Logan (talk) 21:53, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mufasa: The Lion King

Is Mufasa: The Lion King an animated movie like the 2019 Lion King with the photorealistical animation? So if the movie will reach $539 million are we going to include it in the top 50? 80.180.50.237 (talk) 11:27, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
