Production Notes:

The box office champion of 2003, this made $339.7 million in the United States and Canada alone.

Finding Nemo cost $94 million to make. It earned $70.9 million in North American theaters during its opening weekend- nearly twice as much as that weekend's second-place film, a live-action picture. This set a box-office record for the biggest debut for an animated film (breaking the record set by Monsters Inc., also a Disney-Pixar collaboration).

"This is as much of a sure thing at the box office as you can get," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Exhibitor Relations, a firm which tracks box office grosses. He added that the record debut was even more impressive, since many ticket sales for Finding Nemo were discounted for children or matinee shows.

This was the first animated feature scored by Thomas Newman (cousin of Randy Newman, who had done all four previous Pixar features).
