An emotional win for theaters, Hollywood: ‘Inside Out 2’ scores massive $155 million opening
Not only is it the second-highest opening weekend in Pixar’s nearly 29 years of making films and the second-biggest animated opening ever (behind only the $182.7 million launch of “Incredibles 2” in 2018); It’s also the biggest of 2024, which had not had any films debut over $100 million.
