The Lion King (1994)
Screenplay by: Irene Mecchi, Jonathan Roberts, and Linda Woolverton
The Lion King held the title of highest-grossing animated feature for 10 years until Shrek 2 (2004) knocked it off its pedestal (by only $20 million). This massive hit for Disney showed the potential of a four-quadrant film that could bring moviegoers of all ages to the theaters. In comparison, audiences considered Beauty and the Beast (1991) and Aladdin (1992) successful, but their combined box office gross barely surpassed that of The Lion King.
