'WALL-E' tops boxoffice

June 29, 2008 Disney/Pixar's animated family feature "WALL-E" opened with a lively $62.5 million in estimated boxoffice to top the weekend rankings amid a dramatically ebullient domestic marketplace. The $188 million weekend marked a hefty 21% improvement compared with the same frame a year ago -- the fourth session in a row notching year-over-year gains -- helping the seasonal boxoffice jump 4% ahead of the same portion of last summer in Nielsen EDI data. Among this weekend's top holdover films, the Warner Bros./Village Roadshow action comedy "Get Smart" dropped 48% from its week-earlier opening grosses to ring up $20 million in third place and shape a 10-day cume of $77.3 million.
