It’s the second biggest June opening of all time, with only Colin Trevorrow’s Jurassic World ($208.8 million) being the only blockbuster to make more,and its the third biggest opening so far this year, behind only Joe and Anthony Russo’s Avengers: Infinity War ($257.7 million) and Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther ($202 million).
Early estimates are saying that the new movie has made $180 million in its first three days, which is really pretty mind-boggling.
You might have noticed that not only are these all superhero movies – showing that genre fatigue is definitely not a thing – but that they are all also releases from Walt Disney Studios.
Previously it was Andrew Stanton’s Finding Dory in 2016 that set the record for biggest Pixar opening weekend here at home, but now Incredibles 2 , which has been released on the exact same weekend two years later, has completely blown that number out of the water.
