Weekend Box Office: Ratatouille Serves Up a Win

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.

  7. James A. Says:

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

  8. Rick Sparks Says:

    “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!”
