Universal/Amblin’s “Jurassic World: Rebirth” is proving why dinosaurs have such staying power at the box office as it heads for an extended box office opening of $141 million over five days.

Universal’s rebooted dinosaur saga is crushing it worldwide with a $312.5 million debut, stomping past projections.

Dinosaurs and racecars are at the top of the box office, so it’s safe to say summer movie season is in full swing.
