The Incredibles returned in a big way for Disney, scoring the biggest opening weekend for an animated film ever. The long-awaited Pixar sequel also managed to score one of the top ten openings of all time.

For the weekend of June 15-17, 2018, The Incredibles 2 brought in over $182 million in its first three days. To put it in perspective, the film earned nearly as much in its opening weekend as Solo: A Star Wars Story has earned in its first full month ($182M vs. $193M).

Box Office Mojo reports.

With an estimated $180 million, Disney and Pixar’s Incredibles 2 topped the previous opening weekend for an animated film set two years ago by Finding Dory with $135 million. On top of that, the film’s opening weekend is the eighth largest all-time, topping the $179.1 million opening for 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, which went on to gross over $400 million at the domestic box office.

As for Incredibles 2’s domestic future, an “A+” CinemaScore and an opening of this size seems to suggest a $500+ million domestic performance is in the offing, which would make it the highest grossing animated film of all-time should it reach that number, topping Dory’s $486.2 million domestic run.

Additionally, beyond the records already mentioned, the film delivered the largest opening day ever for an animated title and the second largest June opening ever behind Jurassic World. Added to that, when it comes to the largest opening weekends of all-time, Disney now owns nine of the top ten, the lone standout being the aforementioned Jurassic World at number four.

In second is WB’s Ocean’s 8, dropping 53% for an estimated $19.5 million second weekend for a domestic cume just shy of $80 million. Internationally the film added an estimated $19.3 million from 36 markets, pushing the international running cume to $37.1 million for a global tally now topping $116 million.

WB also takes third place with the R-rated comedy Tag, which opened with an estimated $14.6 million. While ahead of the studio’s expectations, this is a bit shy of Mojo’s pre-weekend forecast and a little less than might have been expected following a solid $1.325 million in preview grosses on Thursday night.

Disney and Lucasfilms’s Solo: A Star Wars Story finished in fourth with an estimated $9.3 million for a domestic cume approaching $195 million. Internationally the film added $5.2 million for an overseas cume totaling $146.7 million and a global tally that now stands at $339.5 million.

Here are the top ten films, with their box office tally for the weekend.
