'Toy Story 5' rakes in the biggest box-office debut of the year “Toy Story” still has a friend in moviegoers NEW YORK --NEW YORK (AP) — “Toy Story” still has a friend in moviegoers. The fifth installment in the Pixar seriesdebuted with $160 million in domestic ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday, easily setting a new franchise record and notching the biggest opening weekend of the year. Launching 31 years after the original “Toy Story” first landed in theaters, “Toy Story 5” far surpassed the previous series-best debut: $120 million for “Toy Story 4” in 2019. Internationally, it was just as successful, with $152 million in opening-weekend sales, for a worldwide haul of $312 million. The “Toy Story” franchise is one of the most profitable for The Walt Disney Co. Before “Toy Story 5” launched, the movies had collectively grossed more than $3 billion, while also pulling in billions from merchandising. Though the series seemed to reach a conclusion with 2010’s “Toy Story 3,” the decision to revive the franchise almost a decade later —while controversial— has been extremely lucrative. “Toy Story 4” exceeded $1 billion in ticket sales, and “Toy Story 5” is all but ce…

Weekend Box Office: Toy Story 5 has Pixar's 2nd biggest opening ever Just as we predicted , Pixar’s Toy Story 5 had a monster opening weekend, grossing $160 million and breaking a few records. It’s the highest-opening entry in the franchise to date, while also surpassing what Inside Out 2 earned in its first frame two summers ago. In fact, it’s now the second-biggest Pixar opening of all time, behind The Incredibles 2 , which debuted with $182.5 million before the pandemic. It’s also the biggest opening of the year so far. Pixar’s box office run has been mixed lately. Aside from Inside Out 2 , which was a smash hit, many of their films have underperformed. Their recent Hoppers was seen as a modest comeback, although by comparison Toy Story 5 has nearly grossed what that movie made in its entire run in just one weekend. While it has some competition for family audiences from Minions and Monsters and Disney’s live-action remake of Moana , neither is expected to open nearly as well. With strong reviews and little direct competition, the film appears poised for a lengthy run and a $600–700 million domestic total. Don’t be surprised if Toy Story 6 arrives before too long. However, the …

Box Office: 'Toy Story 5' $70M No. 1., 'Supergirl' Tanks ... - Deadline 'Toy Story 5' and 'Supergirl' Disney/Warner Bros. SUNDAY AM: Toy Story 5 reigned supreme in its second weekend, not just in the U.S. with $70M , but around the world with a $159.1M WW take, raising the Disney/Pixar pic’s cume to $585M . Stateside, the Andrew Stanton movie is less than $3M from hitting the three-century mark. Toy Story 5 ‘s second weekend hold of -56% is spot on with that of Incredibles 2 . Incredibles 2 holds the record for the best opening of an animated film, and Toy Story 5 is second, so that ease isn’t bad at all. Imax screens contributed $900K around the world for a $24M haul for the large format exhibitor. Meanwhile, Warner Bros/DC Studios’ Supergirl became even more challenged over night with a $10.7M Saturday (-41% from Friday/previews), which is turning into a $38M domestic opening. Again, that isn’t the lowest 3-day start for a DC title, but it’s not good for a cosmos-hopping movie that cost $170M-$186M net before global spend. Supergirl ‘s stateside start is lower than Disney/Marvel’s lowest, The Marvels ($46.1M) and it’s God awfully close to that DC disaster, Joker: Folie a Deux ($…

Did the World Cup kick the foreign B.O. in the head? We used to write about such paranoia in the early aughts when studios were first embracing international at the summer B.O. But alas, the World Cup only impacted business on the day of games, read Mexico’s on Thursday. That didn’t stop Mexico from being Toy Story 5 ‘s biggest territory outside the U.S. this weekend at $26.6M, and 2nd best bow YTD and 3rd bet for Pixar. It’s quite possible when we get to the quarter finals in the next week, or the championship in early July, we truly see a dent.
