Already the second highest grossing film of the year by 100m margin.


Looks like all those pundits predicting it would be the second highest grossing movie of the year were right after all.

There are those voices that said it would be the 2nd highest grossing and there is this:
[–] QueenFanUSA (2071) a month ago
The Lion King won't be anywhere close to being the "second highest grossing film of the year"...no studio lost more money on a film this year than Disney on Dumbo...Disney films all have production budgets Waaaaaay above industry norms...aaaannnd if you think Maleficent2 is going to be a hit I've got pieces of the Brooklyn Bridge to sell you.
What Dumbo has to do with TLK2019 and it's potential of being The 2nd Highest grossing Film of 2019 is beyond me and only QFU can explain those statements? Which he WONT do.

Both Domestic and Worldwide TLK2019 is the 2nd highest grossing film for 2019.

Top 2019 Movies (Domestic)
1. Avengers: Endgame $858,041,646
2. The Lion King $487,407,985

Worldwide 2019
1. Avengers: Endgame $2,795,597,939
2. The Lion King $1,351,247,241

You were right, very, very right.

Queen seems to be implying that it wont be the second highest grossing at the end of the year.

I assume the reason he won't say which film will beat it is because the only films that have a chance in hell are Disney films.
