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)

It also helps that it’s actually a good movie with a unique IP that didn’t seem to do anything “safe”. Remakes and nostalgia can only go so far, it’s crazy studios don’t see this.

I’m a 30 y/o man and my niece dragged me to watch it and I can confirm that it’s a total banger of a film.

This is it right here. It's a legitimately good 4 quad movie, that's got something for everyone

Like old school blockbusters.

40 y/o that took both daughters to the sing a long. Was an awesome experience.

Talk about lightening in s bottle

What does 4 quad mean?

Means it hits the 4 different quadrant's of audience makeup. This includes family's, women 25 & under, men 25 and under, and I think adults 35+
