HOLLYWOOD, May 25, 2000 – No matter what the movie, Tom Cruise almost always plays the best. The best race car driver, the best pool player, the best sports agent, the best philandering doctor.
Now, he may be the best in real life, too. Box-office watchers say "M:I-2" stands a good chance of making this Memorial Day weekend the best ever at the box office.
"The overall box office this Memorial Day weekend could be the biggest in history," Gitesh Pandya, editor of Boxofficeguru.com, tells Hollywood.com. "Between 'M:I-2' and 'Dinosaur,' the top two movies alone, people might end up spending over $100 million just to see those two movies. That's how strong the marketplace is right now."
Summer may still be a few weeks away for the weatherman, but Memorial Day weekend is when it starts at the box office. Kids are getting out of school. Ticket prices are higher than ev

Dinosaurs snapped back to life this weekend as Buena Vista/Disney's "Dinosaur" kicked off to nearly $39 million.
The PG-rated, computer-animated feature, which cut short the chart-topping reign of DreamWorks' "Gladiator," set a record as the year's biggest opening with an ESTIMATED $38.6 million at 3,257 theaters ($11,860 per theater).
"Dinosaur's" per-theater average was the highest for any film playing in wide or limited release this weekend.
"I think it's great," Buena Vista Distribution president Chuck Viane said Sunday morning.
Noting that some studios had estimated the picture as opening to even bigger numbers, Viane said, "I know some of my competitors have given me more credit than we're giving ourselves, but I'd rather see it than say it and then have to back off. If tomorrow (when actual weekend figures are released) it's a bigger num

A "Dino"-mite opening by Disney's "Dinosaur" should cut DreamWorks' "Gladiator" down to size this weekend.
After its two-week box office reign, "Gladiator" should fall prey to Buena Vista/Disney's opening of its PG-rated computer-animated "Dinosaur" at 3,257 theaters.
"Dinosaur's" 21% first-choice tracking doesn't really tell the whole story, according to insiders. "It's just fine, because kids' movies don't track," says one executive.
Estimates by Hollywood handicappers of just how big "Dinosaur" will open range from a cautious $25-35 million to a really exuberant $35-40 million. Making projections even more challenging is the fact that a great many "Dinosaur" tickets will be sold at reduced prices to children.
"'Lion King' did $40.9 million in its opening weekend," explains one source. "Now, it opened the end of June. Kids were out of school
