Godzilla: King of the Monsters ruled its opening weekend, but the Godzilla sequel didn’t roar so much as politely squeeze by last week’s winner Aladdin to claim the #1 spot.
With roughly $49 million, King of the Monsters had the softest opening yet for the MonsterVerse — but, hey, at least it topped the May 31-June 2 box office!
Fellow newcomer Ma had to settle for fourth place behind Rocketman, but that horror film’s take was a win too.
Rocketman made close to half that amount, but it’s a very different film, and for the Elton John biopic $25 million is a win.
