NEW YORK (AP) — The dinosaurs still rule the box office.
«Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom» surpassed expectations to open with an estimated $150 million in ticket sales in U. S. and Canada theaters over the weekend. While that total didn’t approach the record-breaking debut of 2015’s «Jurassic» reboot, it proved the franchise still roars loudly among moviegoers.
It also gave Hollywood its first back-to-back $100 million-plus openings in a non-holiday period. After opening with $182.7 million last week, Pixar’s acclaimed sequel «The Incredibles 2» slid 56 percent in its second week, with an $80.9 million haul.
The female-fronted heist film «Ocean’s 8» also crossed $100 million domestically with $11.7 million in its third week.
