They need to focus on not spending $200 million to make these movies.

How to Train Your Dragon made 83 M domestically this weekend, much more than Mission Impossible and others debuted at.

That already makes it the 9th highest grossing film of the year, and it is rapidly moving up the charts. Probably be # 5 or 6 by this coming weekend.

Lilo & Stitch is up to 366 M but Minecraft is still number # 1 at 423 M.

The John Wick "Ballerina" has really struggled. Only 41 M to date here in the U.S.

The current Top 10 of 2025 domestically:

(1) Minecraft Movie
(2) Lilo & Stitch
(3) Sinners
(4) Captain America
(5) Thunderbolts
(6) Mission Impossible
(7) Final Destination
(8) How to Train Your Dragon
(9) Dog Man
(10) Snow White


No doubt that Dragon will be moving up the list and ELIO coming this week will do well.

In July, you have SUPERMAN, JURASSIC WORLD, SMURFS and FANTASTIC FOUR.
