When "Finding Nemo" became a box-office success years earlier, the fans expected the filmmakers to do justice to its sequel, "Finding Dory," the same way. The opening weekend of the film is a clear testimony that the sequel is indeed worth its salt. The release of the film has received such raving response that the experts estimate it to rake in as much as $130 million in the opening weekend alone.
While many fans would believe that the top three animated movies belong to the Disney Pixar studio. However, so far there was only one, until "Finding Dory" came along. If the "Finding Nemo" sequel fails to attain the projected target of $130 million, it will become a close second to the year's highest grossing opening weekend film, "Captain America: Civil War." The superhero movie made a whopping $179 million in its opening weekend.
According to reports, the US box office has not been what it used to be. There is a noticeable slump over the last years. However, with movies like "Finding Dory," the investors can regain their faith in the new stream of movies and the people can expect to see better quality cinema. If the trends continue to be the same as now, it will be no surprise if the "Finding Nemo" sequel makes more money than expected, especially since it is yet to be released in other major parts of the world, such as UK.
