January 3, 2009 : America Likes Animation (and Action)
Check out Box Office Mojo’s link of the Top Domestic Grossing Movies for 2008.
A few notes of interest:
- Four of the top ten films were animated (Wall-E, Panda, Madagascar 2, and Horton).
- The top two films were based off of Comics (Dark Knight and Iron Man).
- Pretty much the rest of the films were of the action persuasion.
While these are just the domestic figures, the international numbers won’t change the general landscape of the year’s top movies.Â
Either way, it shouldn’t be much of a surprise that the big bucks is in action and special effects. The shocker is how successful some of the animation films did this year.
