The truly impressive streak for Jurassic World continues as the film brought in $102 million this weekend, on top of the almost $100 million it made during the week and the $200 million it made last weekend, to hit just a hair under $400 million since opening – domestically. With a worldwide total of $980 million, the film is doing boffo business and is challenging several records along the way. Suffice to say, the film is doing far better than tracking or expectations had it and it’s going to be a damn impressive year for Universal on top of their previous release of Furious 7.
While that’s getting a good bit of the dialogue, the weekend was also strong for newcomer Inside Out, which made $91 million for its debut in North America. This makes it the highest opening weekend ever for a brand new film, surpassing Avatar, which landed at $77 million back in 2009. It’s worldwide box office will be weaker overall since it’s doing a staggered rollout, where as Jurassic World has essentially opened everywhere except Japan at this point. Kids oriented films tend to have a bit better legs during the summer as well, and this one has no real competition until the Minions movie opens in late July.
