Finding Dory just keeps swimming as it makes it two weeks at the top of the US box office.
Dropping just 45% from its record breaking opening weekend, Finding Dory earned a very impressive $71 million, which is the eighth biggest second weekend of all-time. In only its second week, Finding Dory is now the 13th highest grossing animated movie of all-time in North America with a current domestic haul of $286.5 million.
Worldwide, Finding Dory finds itself eking towards the $400 million mark with $396 million. It’s already in the Top 10 highest earners of 2016.
Next week it will likely lose the top spot to Disney’s own The BFG, but should still push past $300 million domestically.

Disney•Pixar’s “Finding Dory” welcomes back to the big screen everyone’s favourite forgetful blue tang Dory (voice of Ellen DeGeneres), who’s living happily in the reef with Nemo (voice of Hayden Rolence) and Marlin (voice of Albert Brooks). When Dory suddenly remembers that she has a family out there who may be looking for her, the trio takes off on a life-changing adventure across the ocean to California’s prestigious Marine Life Institute, a rehabilitation center and aquarium. In an effort to find her mom (voice of Diane Keaton) and dad (voice of Eugene Levy), Dory enlists the help of three of the MLI’s most intriguing residents: Hank (voice of Ed O’Neill), a cantankerous octopus who frequently gives employees the slip; Bailey (voice of Ty Burrell), a beluga whale who is convinced his echolocation skills are on the fritz; and Destiny (voice of Kaitlin Olson), a nearsighted whale shark. Deftly navigating the complex innerworkings of the MLI, Dory and her friends discover the magic within their flaws, friendships and family.
