The standalone sequel "Twisters" blew the box-office away with a debut that destroyed a decades-old record. The box-office is down 50% compared to the same frame last year, but that was when the "Barbenheimer" juggernaut stormed theaters, so it's a tough comparison to make.
Read more about the weekend box-office after the jump.
Universal's Twisters" opened with 81.2 million from 4,151 theaters, breaking the record previously set by Roland Emmerich's "The Day After Tomorrow" in 2004 ($68.4 million), and becoming the biggest debut for a disaster movie ever. It's also the third-best opening of 2024. Overseas it's not doing so well, grossing only $43.5 million.
