Weekend Box-Office Report (June 21-23, 2013)

The two major wide releases of the week scored great at the box-office. Pixar's "Monsters University" was the big winner with $82M in just 3 days, an improvement over the $62M opening of "Monsters Inc." and it even ranks as the second best opening for a Pixar movie, behind "Toy Story 3" ($110M). The Brad Pitt zombie thriller "World War Z" managed a strong second place with $66M, much better than the $30M-$40M that Paramount predicted initially. "Man of Steel" dropped over 64% from its opening weekend and took two steps back to #3, but it's still doing well and the domestic total is at $210M now. The foreign markets, however, are less receptive to the Superman reboot, with only $73M gathered over 10 days.
