The Box Office: Pixar’s Up Takes First Place

Submitted by April Nanney on June 1, 2009 – 2:39 am2 Comments

While it should come as no surprise, Pixar’s movie Up took first place at the box office opening weekend by a landslide, coming in at $68.2 million as of Sunday. Pixar Animation is on a roll with all 10 of their movies being huge commercial successes.

Ben Stiller’s sequel Night At The Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian dropped to second place with $25.5 million, still not a bad chunk of change for a sequel that has now taken in over $105 million.

The horror flick Drag Me To Hell didn’t open as well as Sam Raimi’s other movies, opening with $16.6 million.

These are the estimated ticket sales from Friday to Sunday according to Hollywood.com. Final profits will be released later today.

1. Up – $68.2 million

2. Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian – $25.5 million
