The two films delivered the biggest Memorial Day picnic in history at the box office, while 'Lilo' supplanted Tom Cruise's 'Top Gun: Maverick' as the holiday's top opener of all time, among numerous other feats.

Disney’s Lilo & Stitch has teed up this summer’s box office to arguably become the best one since Covid with a projected $4.2 billion in the U.S. and Canada after breaking a slew of records over its opening Memorial Day weekend frame.

The twin releases of Walt Disney Co.’s Lilo & Stitch and Paramount Global’s Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning lifted ticket sales at US and Canadian theaters to a record $329.8 million for the long Memorial Day weekend.
