It appears as if an eleven year break in between movies didn't scare off any fans, as Toy Story 3 grossed a staggering $109 million at the box office this weekend, becoming the biggest opener for a June movie EVER.
That hefty sum is also the third biggest opener for an animated film in history, just behind Shrek 2 and Shrek the Third. The film is expected to make around $400 million domestically, and is already getting some serious Oscar buzz!!
Congrats to Pixar, who have delivered each time with their fantastic films!

I need to make my way over to the movies to see this. Toy Story is one of my favorite movies, surprised it did so well this long after the last one opened!
ReplyDeleteIt has been getting stellar reviews, especially from Entertainment Weekly and Rolling Stone. RS called it one of the best films of the year!
