BOX OFFICE: ZOOTOPIA Surpasses BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE Domestically; Disney Breaks Studio Record

Zootopia has retaken its second place spot, just after Deadpool's whopping $362 million, at the 2016 box office (and rightfully so) after beating Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice this past weekend. The universally-acclaimed Disney animated film is now at $327.6 million (and still has very strong legs), which beats the critically-panned "historic event" (now at a very disappointing $327.2 million). I guess quality matters. 

Thanks in part to Captain America: Civil War's massive opening weekend, Disney has broken a studio record. It is now the fastest studio to reach $1 billion domestically in only 128 days, beating last year's Universal record by 37 days. 

Worldwide, Zootopia is now at a massive $956 million and is expected to reach $1 billion by June. 2016 looks like a great year for Disney. ZootopiaThe Jungle Book, and Captain America: Civil War are all on lock to reach $1 billion. 

Which movie do YOU prefer?

Disney plan was to put Captain America on first place after Jungle Book would earned enough money. There was also Zootopia. Half of 2016 an Disney already smashed the competition.

@jerryblake - And there's still Alice 2, Dr Strange and Finding Dory. Oh, and this little thing called Star Wars.
