Despite all claims to the contrary, moviegoing is alive and well in the world.
The secret is giving audiences what they want. In this case, families were more than willing to pony up for Pixar’s Inside Out 2, propelling the long-awaited sequel to a joyous $155 million stateside debut or the second-best animated opening of all time. Wow. That number bests last year’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie and trails only The Incredible 2’s $182.7M opening in 2018.
Inside Out 2 easily becomes 2024’s biggest opener, besting Dune: Part II’s $182.5M and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’s $194M. Again, give people a reason to go to the movies, and they will answer the call. Elsewhere, Bad Boys: Ride or Die held strong in its second weekend, collecting an additional $33M to raise its domestic cume to $112.2M. That’s a better hold than Bad Boys for Life . Worldwide, the pic sits at $214M. Will the fourth film in the Will Smith/Martin Lawrence franchise zip past the third chapter’s $426M global gross?1.
