There was no mystery behind “Finding Dory” opening with a bang. Over 25 million liked the forgetful blue tang on Facebook. Millions more watched the trailers. Justin Bieber gave the movie a shout out to his more than 83 million followers on Twitter, and his Tweet was retweeted over 90,000 times.

But enough about Twitter—here are the numbers.
The movie is expected to bring home over $136 million from its opening weekend, according to the latest Disney estimates reported by Deadline.
That beats “Shrek the Third,” which opened at over $121 million for the previous highest grossing animated feature opening weekend.
