Queen Elsa and Princess Anna's fans in Arendelle and all over the world may not like this, but "Minions" is predicted to topple "Frozen's" box office record.

Illumination Entertainment's "Minions" may beat the 2013 Disney film "Frozen" in terms of ticket sales, MTV News reported.

Ace Showbiz recently announced that "Minions," starring Kevin, Stuart, Bob and other adorably cute yellow mini-guys, is now officially on the second spot of the highest-grossing animated films of all time, replacing Pixar's much-loved 2010 movie "Toy Story 3." The film even broke all opening day records for any other animated movie shown in China, posting a $20.1 million sales on its debut.

Variety informed that "Minions" made $86.4 million within six days of cinema screening. It even beat the action-packed "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation," which was starred and co-produced by famous Hollywood A-lister Tom Cruise.

Now, "Frozen" still ranks on the top spot with $1.28 billion in worldwide sales, followed by "Minions" with $1.08 billion and "Toy Story 3" with $1.06 billion.

However, "Minions" still has a screening in Greece on Sept. 24 to reduce its gap with "Frozen," noted Ace Showbiz.

Contrary to what MTV may be thinking, it will be hard for "Minions" to wipe out "Frozen's" record through Greece's screening alone, as it will need $200 million more to beat it.

Basing on Box Office Mojo's data, even the top animated film "Frozen" only got around $2.18 million total gross when it was released in Greece in December of 2013, or only about one percent of $200 million. Still, if more international cinemas will open to screen "Minions" further and if extended runs in China are possible, then it can still have a chance to claim the first spot.

"Frozen 2"

Yet, if ever "Minions" becomes successful in bumping "Frozen" from its spot, Disney may find a way to bounce back through its sequel "Frozen 2." The directors are already talking about it, teasing fans so they would line up and see it again like how they fervently wanted the first movie.

According to "Frozen 2" director Chris Buck, Anna and Elsa will have meaningful challenges for the benefit of their young fans who look up to them, informed an August article from MTV News.

"I think we're very aware of what is happening in society. I don't think any of us take [them] lightly, even though they can be very funny and entertaining, the messages that our movies have and the influence they can have on young people," Buck said.
