Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part Two are off to a record-breaking start during the Memorial Day weekend. Lilo & Stitch achieved a stunning $170-$180 million domestic debut, exceeding expectations and setting a new Memorial Day record for Disney's live-action studio. Mission: Impossible is on track for a franchise-best $78 million opening. Both films are projected to contribute to the biggest Memorial Day box office weekend ever, driven by strong audience response and nostalgia for Lilo & Stitch.
