Description
While 'Finding Nemo' was a box office smash ($940 million), it achieved another incredible blockbuster record: it is the best-selling DVD of all time, with over 40 million copies sold. This highlighted a major era of the 'Home Video Blockbuster' (early 2000s), where studios often made as much profit from physical sales as they did from theaters. The film's success was also responsible for a 25% increase in the demand for clownfish as pets, demonstrating the massive real-world influence of blockbuster animation on consumer behavior.
