Weekend Box Office: Ratatouille Serves Up a Win
By James A. on July 1st, 2007
Pixar’s latest animated movie, “Ratatouille,” beat out Bruce Willis’s return as John McClane in “Live Free or Die Hard” at the weekend box office.
“Ratatouille,” about a rat who wants to be a gourmet chef, earned $47.2 million in its opening weekend. That’s the lowest opening for a Pixar movie in nine years.
The first “Die Hard” movie in 12 years took in $33.2 million in its opening weekend and $48 million since opening on Wednesday.
“Evan Almighty” continued to perform poorly at the box office. The most expensive comedy ever produced saw its gross drop by 52% from last weekend. The movie, which cost $175 million to make, has earned $60.6 million in 10 days.

I can not wait to see Pirates and Sicko. Not surprised to see Ratatouille in #1. It had a lot of publicity.

I’ve heard some people say Ratatouille is the best Pixar movie ever.

“Ratatouille” is poorly named. It refers to a dish that is prepared late in the movie’s running time.
That said - it is a FANTASTIC piece of entertainment, and another home run for director Brad Bird and the whole Pixar team. Note - this one does have spots of drama/dialogue that will lose the attention of toddlers. I love that Pixar isn’t just trying to entertain children with their movies, and I do not hasten to say that this is the most “adult” of their films. Still, fun for the whole family does ring true - mostly. Just make sure the younger members of your family know the value of “be quiet so other people in the theater can hear!”
