Summary
Toy Story 5 smashed box office records with a $160 million opening weekend—tying it as the biggest animated debut ever, dethroning Incredibles 2. The franchise, now 31 years old, has grossed over $3 billion and continues to dominate with merchandising and audience loyalty. Directed by Andrew Stanton and featuring the original voice cast, the film follows toys sidelined by a new tablet, and includes a Taylor Swift track. Critics and audiences gave it an “A” CinemaScore. Meanwhile, Obsession surged past $215 million domestically, while Spielberg’s Disclosure Day stumbled and Robin Hood flopped. The hybrid summer strategy—big franchises plus surprise hits—is proving wildly successful, with the box office up 15% this year.
