I still don't understand how Ralph can be considered a slam-bang hit, when the only film it outgrossed on this list is Paranorman. Adding to this, Ralph's budget was above 120 million, (some websites say 150+ million,) and its American gross is just slightly higher than Chicken Little.
(...and yet Princess and the Frog was a "disapointment," even though it cost less, grossed more, and felt more like a Disney animated film?)
