Question: Which 2003 animated film has a title taken in part from the name of a Jules Verne character? 

Answer: Finding Nemo ( after Captain Nemo) is an Academy Award-winning computer-animated film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released to theaters by Walt Disney Pictures and Buena Vista Distribution. It was released in the United States/Canada on May 30, 2003, in Australia on August 28, 2003, and in the UK on October 10, 2003. The movie is the fifth Disney/Pixar feature film and the first to be released during the summer season.\n\nThe movie was released on a two-disc DVD on November 4, 2003 in the United States and Canada, and in Australia on January 16, 2004. It went on to become the best selling DVD of all time at 28 million copies sold.\n\nFinding Nemo set a record as the highest grossing opening weekend for an animated feature, making $70 million (surpassed in 2004 by Shrek 2). It was, for a time, the highest grossing animated film of all time, eclipsing the record set by The Lion King. However, in less than four weeks of release, Shrek 2 surpassed Finding Nemo's domestic gross. By March 2004, Finding Nemo was one of the top ten highest-grossing films ever, having earned over $850 million US.\n\n\n[edit] Totals\nBudget: $90,000,000 \nMarketing cost: $4,000,000 \nOpening Weekend Gross (Domestic): $70,251,710 \nTotal Domestic Grosses: $339,714,978 \nTotal Overseas Grosses: $524,911,000 \nTotal Worldwide Grosses: $864,625,978 \n\nA clown fish named Marlin living in the Great Barrier Reef looses his son, Nemo after he ventures into the open sea, despite his fathers constant warnings about many of the Ocean's dangers, is abducted by a boat, and netted up and sent to a dentist's office in Sydney.
