Bloomberg: “Jurassic World” extended its box-office reign to a third straight weekend, outdrawing two new releases and piling up sales at a record pace. The Universal Pictures action movie about a theme park of genetically mutated dinosaurs collected $54.2 million in the U.S and Canada. The film reached more than $500 million in North American ticket sales in 17 days, the fastest ever. Disney’s “Inside Out” garnered $52.1 million, for second place again, while “Ted 2,” also from Universal, opened with sales of $32.9 million to place third. Universal is dominating the box office this year, with the Comcast film unit garnering a leading 25 percent market share.
