Meanwhile, Maleficent climbs to $200 million in domestic receipts.

But beyond the animated feature and the daughter of an animated feature (Maleficent), three other entrants in the Top Ten are chock full of CG animation. (If you don't have a program book those would be: Transformers, The Edge of Tomorrow and X-Men.)

There might not be as much CG animation being done in Southern California right now, but around the wide world there is a LOT of CG animation work packaged inside various high-budget tent poles.
