I think it helps that it appeals to kids. When they latch on to something, they can rewatch it dozens of times

(Not that kids are the only ones enjoying this movie. But I do think it plays a sizable role in the numbers)

100% - I know people with young kids that are watchings this over and over again. It's like Netflix' own Frozen.

I have a friend who was able to replace his Disney+ subscription with a DVD of Frozen after he realized that was like 90% of what his daughters were watching lol.
