Pixar's Monsters University remained the No. 1 movie this weekend, staving off competition from newcomers The Heat and White House Down.
Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy's R-rated buddy cop comedy had a healthy second place debut with $40 million, but director Roland Emmerich's White House Down bowed with a disappointing fourth place showing of $25.7 million.
It appears White House Down really was hurt in the public's eyes by its similarly-themed Olympus Has Fallen, which opened this past spring to $30+ million and ended up earning $160.9 million worldwide.
Here are the weekend's domestic box office estimates via Rentrak:
1. Monsters University $46.2 million
2. The Heat $40 million
3. World War Z $29.8 million
4. White House Down $25.7 million
5. Man of Steel $20.8 million
6. This is The End $8.7 million
7. Now You See Me $5.5 million
8. Fast & Furious 6 $2.4 million
9. Star Trek Into Darkness $2 million
10. The Internship $1.4 million
