Disney/Pixar blockbuster Finding Dory, held the #1 spot for a second weekend, earning the most at the box office with $73m. Three debuts still managed to make the Top 5, though; those were Fox's Independence Day: Resurgence, Sony's The Shallows and STX's Free State of Jones.

Finding Dory was only down a mere 46%, earning the largest second weekend for an animated flick or the eighth-largest second weekend in history.
