“The Good Dinosaur” Places Second at Box Office in Debut Weekend

Disney/Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur placed second at the box office in its premiere weekend, with an estimated $39.19 million in ticket sales putting it behind the first place finisher (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, taking an estimated $51.6 million in its second week of release) and edging out its competition for third (Creed, which earned an estimated $30.12 million in its premiere weekend). However, the ticket sales for The Good Dinosaur would rank it as the worst opening for a Pixar movie since Toy Story in 1995, and even its $55.5 million cumulative total over the five-day weekend domestically would place it $5 million behind the debut weekend take of 2006’s Cars.

The Peanuts Movie also earned another $9.7 million (estimated) to bring its cumulative total to $116.76 million and a fifth place finish at the box office.

Last pup of a dying planet, a young German Shepherd is rocketed to Earth, where he is bombarded by cosmic gamma rays emitted by a radioactive spider. Crash-landing in the forgotten land of Hubba Hubba, he is discovered by the Who-You-Callin'-Ancient One and his lovely wife Pookie. Instilled with their traditional American values, he spends his young adulthood roaming the globe, learning all the secrets of Comic-Fu. Donning battle armor fashioned from spilled chemicals splashed by lightning, he becomes the Sensational Shield of Sequential Art ACE THE BATHOUND! Look, it sounds a lot better than the truth. Born in Brooklyn, moved to Queens at 3 and then New Jersey at 10. Throughout high school, college, grad school, and gainful employment, two things have remained constant: 1) I am a colossal nerd, and 2) I have spent far too much time reading comics, and then reading and writing about them. Currently working as a financial programmer in New York City, while continuing to discover all the wonderful little surprises (and expenses) of owning your a home in the suburbs. Shares the above with a beautiful, wonderful, and incredibly understanding wife named Frances (who, thankfully, participates in most of my silly hobbies) and a large furry dog named Brownie (who, sadly, does not).
