LONDON (Reuters) – “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" has out-stripped "Toy Story 2" as Disney's biggest UK hit at the box office, Disney Home Video said on Thursday. "Narnia" has grossed £44.4 million in the UK to date, trumping the previous record of £44.3 million held by the 1999 blockbuster "Toy Story 2." "Narnia", which hit the big screen in 2005, follows the adventures of four children who find a portal in the back of a wardrobe to a magical world, where they fight the evil White Witch with the help of a noble lion named Aslan. The film is based on C.S. Lewis's 1950 novel, which remains one of the best-loved children's books. Over 100 million copies of the Narnia book titles have been sold worldwide. Disney said it also expects strong sales of the DVD, due to be released on April 3. "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" has taken $403.5 million (£232 million) to date at the world box-office.
Pixar needs to get with the program and stop making such flops like Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. :)
