'Jurassic World: Dominion' roars to big opening weekend at the box office

The end of the Jurassic era arrived with a deafening roar at the box office.
"Jurassic World: Dominion," the sixth and supposedly last film in the Jurassic Park franchise, brought in an estimated $143.3 million for its North America opening this weekend. The Universal Pictures' film took the top spot from "Top Gun: Maverick" and represents one of the highest-grossing openings of the year so far.
The opening for "Dominion" roughly falls in line with the debut of the prior film in the series, "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," which opened to $148 million in 2018. That's impressive considering how different the box office marketplace is compared to just five years ago.
