Last Week’s Results

Pixar’s latest box office hit clung to the top of the box office for the second consecutive week, keeping The Heat from scoring a number 1 debut. The Heat didn’t perform badly in its freshman frame, but its fellow release, White House Down proved to be a resounding dud, earning less than $25 million and landing in a shallow fourth place.
