Finding Nemo Beats Lion King
posted by joshualane – July 28 2003 – 10:16pm

According to BoxOfficeMojo.com, Finding Nemo has made over $313 million at the box office so far and has officially surpassed The Lion King’s first run of $312.8 million. This would make Finding Nemo the highest grossing animated film (not counting inflation) of all time!

However, The Lion King did make an extra $15 million during it’s IMAX run so Nemo has another couple of weeks or so until it overtakes that amount as well. Congratulations to the folks at Pixar!
