The domestic box office hit its highest sales figure in history this year. As Variety reports, sales surpassed $11.383 billion, taking the U.S. box office past the previous high of $11.382 billion, which was set in 2016.

While it got more expensive to go to the movies, with ticket prices averaging $9.38 in the summer, attendance is also up 4 percent from last year.

Highlighting just how strong a 2018 Disney had, five of the top 10 biggest domestic releases were Disney movies.

Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War occupied the first two spots, ringing in $700 million and $678.8 million respectively. Incredibles 2, which became the biggest domestic animated movie of all time with $416 million, was in third, while Universal’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Deadpool 2 rounded out the top five.

Disney reportedly made over $1 billion more than the next best studio and commands over 26 percent of this year’s market share.
