The stock market isn’t the only thing enjoying new records - so is the box office. This Thanksgiving weekend was the biggest ever for Hollywood in terms of domestic ticket sales

Part 1″ and “Gladiator II” fueled the “highest-grossing Thanksgiving ever at the box office,” according to NBC News. The three movies brought in a combined $420 million to the box office during Thanksgiving weekend — surpassing the previous record of $315.

Disney’s Moana 2 sailed past the box-office doldrums of 2024 and crested all riptides of financial expectation to solidify a new record as the biggest-ever Thanksgiving blockbuster: $221 million domestically over the holiday corridor.
