Sausage Party, though not a huge grosser by international box office standards, has taken in over sixt times its production costs. For the rest:

Finding Dory is now No. 3 globally for 2016 and the No. 5 animated pic of all time. German-speaking Europe maintained No. 1 in week 2. ...

Storks delivered $9.7M from approximately 8,300 screens in 55 international markets. The cume is now $56M. In Spain, the drop was 20% for a $2.8M cume. China leads overseas with $11.3M after 15 days and amid a crowded roster of local titles. ...

Here in October, five of the top 11 highest-grossing features are animated. And most of the rest are super hero flicks with loads of animated effects.

SO, we could say that 2016 is the Year of Animation, yes?
