Disney's latest live-action remake is already three-fourths of the way to a $1 billion globally, while 'Sinners' just became one of the decade's big success stories.

The older the Disney movie, the riskier the chances of box office success for the remake. There were other reasons behind Snow White only making $205 million worldwide, but the fact it was based on a 1937 movie likely didn't help. As an additional example, the Dumbo remake grossed $353 million worldwide.
