“Jurassic World: Dominion” managed to remain the most watched film in North America in its second weekend in theaters, although it faced the premiere of “Lightyear”, an animated spin-off of the beloved “Toy Story” franchise. .
According to Comscore, digital dinosaurs surpassed the animated astronaut with $ 58.7 million in 4,679 theaters in the United States and Canada.
In 10 days of airing, the national total reached $ 247.8 million, while the world sum reached $ 622.2 million. Universal’s production was only the seventh Hollywood title to exceed $ 600 million in the era of the pandemic.
The third “Jurassic World” is also the biggest American hit released in China since the pandemic, with a turnover of $ 92.8 million in the country.
“Lightyear” came in at number 2, below Disney screenings, with $ 51 million from 4,255 screens. Overseas, Pixar design grossed $ 34.6 million in 43 markets, reaching $ 85.6 million worldwide. It was what Disney hoped to achieve only in the United States.
The film would face conservative retaliation in more ways than one. In addition to protests for promoting “gender ideology” (a sign that appeared in its launch in Peru), for including a lesbian character, it would also be damaged by the new wave of covid-19. Children from conservative families correspond to one of the segments with the worst vaccination coverage and who would not go to the cinema yet.
With the release of “Lightyear”, this was also the first weekend since the start of the pandemic in which four blockbusters topped the charts of the most viewed films in North America.
“Top Gun: Maverick” was ranked 3rd with a drop of just 15% from the previous period. It has grossed $ 44 million in the past three days alone, surpassing $ 466.2 million at the national box office and a staggering $ 885.2 million worldwide. It has everything to become Tom Cruise’s first billionaire outing.
Far from these figures, “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” came in 4th place with $ 4.2 million. It has been in operation for six weeks and has gross domestic sales of $ 405.1 million and $ 942.5 million worldwide.
The animation “Bob’s Burgers: The Movie”, which is expected to arrive in Brazil directly in streaming, completes the Top 5 with 1.1 million dollars and a national figure of 29.8 million dollars.
