Not that I know of [In reply to] Can't Post

I don't think animated films have a different have different windows from live-action ones. Wreck-It Ralph (which is hilarious and clever and I highly recommend it) has been in release for 90 days, which isn't particularly long compared to some of the films I mentioned earlier. It has gone from 3,752 theaters down to 588, and it's per-screen average was only $53 yesterday. Which I suspect means that in most houses it's only playing once or twice per day.

I've noticed that here in Madison, Wisconsin animated films tend to play our second-run house for a long time. Brave ran for months, after having stayed in theaters for months in first run. My guess is that once a film is in second run, parents find it a cheap way to entertain kids. (Ours is $2 for an adult ticket at matinees.) The animated films play for weeks after their DVDs come out.
