Move over Barbenheimer, it’s time for Lilo & Stich-ible.

Lilo & Stitch teamed up with Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning to produce the largest Memorial Day weekend at the box office of all time.

Disney’s live action remake of its 2002 animated film was the weekend’s #1 film, bringing in an estimated total of $183 million in its first week, according to Box Office Mojo. Meanwhile, the eighth entry in the Tom Cruise-starring spy series came in second with an estimated $77 million debut.

The top five also included Final Destination: Bloodlines at #3 with $24.5 million, Thunderbolts* at #4 with $11.6 million and Sinners at #5 with $11.23 million.

All that and more added up to a total box office haul of a history-making $322 million across the holiday weekend, Variety reports. It beats the previous best Memorial Day weekend gross set in 2013, when a slate including Fast & Furious 6The Hangover Part III and Star Trek into Darkness brought in $314 million.

Here are the top 10 films at the box office:

1. Lilo & Stitch – $183 million
2. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning – $77 million
3. Final Destination: Bloodlines – $24.5 million
4. Thunderbolts* – $11.6 million
5. Sinners – $11.23 million
6. The Last Rodeo – $6.267 million
7. Friendship – $5.736 million
