Jurassic World seems to have defied all odds and opened as the 2nd largest domestic debut in history, and the largest worldwide opening weekend. That’s pretty amazing. It’s honestly only a few million shy from The Avengers, and some insiders are saying it might take the crown when all is said and done. Right now, it’s just projected in #2. An A cinemascore suggests that Jurassic World and Inside Out (which currently has a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes) are going to have a very interesting fight for #1 next weekend. In other news, Spy held really well in week 2, dropping only 45% up against very formidable competition. Insidious Chapter 3 dove 67% in week 2, fairly typical for a horror flick. Entourage dropped 57%, not very encouraging either. On the flip side, Pitch Perfect 2 only dipped 20%, Love and Mercy dipped 16%, and Mad Max and Avengers both kept their drops below 50%. Also opening this week was Me, Earl, and the Dying Girl, which took its solid reviews to 210K and a 14K per screen average (besting every film reported so far except Jurassic World).
