The reason Lion King did so well was parents were able to take their kids to a movie they loved when they were young. Then you got the Disney factor which they always kill at the box office and limiting it to a two week run guaranteed good numbers. Moneyball making 20+ million is a very good weekend.

A Disney movie did well because parents took their kids to see it? Disney movies traditionally do well at the box office? The hell you say.
