Box Office: Walt Disney's 'Moana' Sets Sail With $81M Thanksgiving Debut


Hollywood's Biggest Turkeys Of 2016: The Films That FloppedWalt Disney now owns nine of the top ten Thanksgiving debuts of all time. Now, to be fair, the Thanksgiving weekend has often been dominated (or at least topped) by the second weekend of a given Harry Potter/Twilight/Hunger Games offering going back to 2001. To wit, it is the second-biggest Wed-Sun Thanksgiving opening between Frozen ($93.5m in 2013) and Toy Story 2 ($80.1m). Regarding Fri-Sun openings on this date, it is below the $67.3m Frozen figure and the $57.3m Toy Story 2 debut. Regarding multipliers and the like, Moana had a 5.17x five-day multiplier, which is frontloaded for a Thanksgiving weekend animated opener and includes a record-breaking Thanksgiving opening day of $15.58m.
