Despite the mixed reviews from the critics (you can read all about it in our review roundup right here), there is no question that The Super Bros. Movie is a huge hit with fans worldwide. How much of a hit? Try $377 million global worth as it smash records globally. Such records that has made it the new king of Animated Films. 
Why is it the new King? Well...it now holds the record for the Biggest Worldwide Opening of All Time for an Animated Film. Super Mario passed up the global premiere of Walt Disney Animation's Frozen 2, which earned $358 million in November 2019, just before the COVID-19 crisis hit. And Super Mario is already the fourth-highest-grossing animated title of the epidemic period, with Universal taking all four slots. (the studio owns both Illumination and DreamWorks Animation).

Nothing but Mushrooms, Peaches and Money for Mario! 
Here's the full breakdown of all the film's records provided by Variety

​Domestic:
  • Highest-grossing debut of 2023, surpassing “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” at $106.1 million
  • Biggest five-day (Wednesday-Sunday) opening of all-time, overtaking 2009’s “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” at $200 million. (Note: This stat is specifically for movies that opened on a Wednesday. It’s nowhere near the biggest opening weekends in general, which belong to “Avengers: Endgame,” “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and “Infinity War” and their $250 million-plus starts over three days)
  • Highest-grossing debut for Illumination, beating 2015’s “Minions” and its three-day opening weekend of $115.7 million
  • Second-biggest debut ever for an animated movie, outpacing 2016’s “Finding Dory” and its three-day opening weekend of $135.1 million and following “Incredibles 2” and its three-day debut of $183 million
  • Highest-grossing debut for a video game adaptation, outranking 2022’s “Sonic the Hedgehog 2” at $72.1 million
International:
  • Biggest opening of 2023, ahead of “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” at $117.1 million
  • Second-biggest animated opening of all-time, behind “Frozen 2” at $228.2 million
  • Biggest Illumination opening of all-time
  • Biggest video game opening of all-time

Global:
  • Biggest opening of 2023, bringing down “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” at $225.3 million
  • Highest Illumination opening of all-time, passing 2013’s “Despicable Me 2” at $208 million
  • Biggest video game opening of all-time, eclipsing 2016’s “Warcraft” at $210 million
  • Highest animated opening weekend ever for Imax with $21.6 million

​It warms my heart to see the success of some of the recent game-to-movie films (especially this one since it's FREAKING MARIO!). Even better, it seems there's no stopping this monster, as the film hasn't even been released in Japan at the time of writing this article. Now Nintendo, we held up our side of the bargain...it's time for that Kirby movie that the world deserves!
