does pixar ever disappoint? 

no.  the disney-owned animation house has never had a clunker at the box office, and that stream isn't getting broken anytime soon.  disney-pixar's latest flick, up, took in $68.2 million over the weekend, only being beat by the incredibles and finding nemo in debut numbers.  but, that doesn't mean it can't be as big as those two.  up is also only the 9th release from the studio and is the only movie of 2009 to get a viewer overall score of a+, according to cinemascore.  the studio's next go around will be toy story 3.  it's teaser trailer premiered this week along with up.  the film will focus on what happens to all of andy's toys when he goes off to college; they'll be spending some quality time at a day care center allegedly.  early plans for a trip to japan to rescue a recalled buzz lightyear were scrapped when disney acquired pixar.  disney planned to go ahead with the third installment without the cgi predecessor before the two reached a settlement after the success of finding nemo.  check it out above.  behind up was another family friendly option, ben stiller's night at the museum 2: battle of the smithsonian.  for the teens and horror lovers, drag me to hell brought in a pretty impressive $17 million in third place.  it appears that we are finally into the summer movie season, ladies and gentlemen.  in just two weeks, smithsonian has taken in over $100 million, only the 9th film to gross that much this year.  and '09's top grossing flick?  star trek.  the sci-fi relaunch beat out dreamworks' monsters vs aliens, with a pull of over $200 million so far.  here's the full list of this weekend's top 10.
