Box Office Muscle

That there are millions upon millions of views for "Sing" trailers might be good indicators the picture could do well, yes?

One more fine example of the overcrowded market for animated features (Not):

... Whistling a happy tune, Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures’ Sing has pulled in an estimated $24.3M in 56 territories through today. With a $97.8M offshore gross, the Garth Jennings-helmed pic will pass $100M tomorrow. It’s estimated that the worldwide total through Monday will be $281.3M. ...

For people keeping spreadsheets about how long-form cartoons are doing box office-wise, please note that Moana has taken in $355,781,943, and Trolls has taken in $330,261,850. both pictures continue in wide release. The Disney South Seas adventure is #4 at the box office, with $212,500,000 in the till.

Audience just don't get that they're only supposed to watch one animated flick a month, because cannibalization.
