Brad Birds tentpole Tomorrowland has narrowly pulled ahead of blockbuster Pitch Perfect 2 at the Memorial Day box office with an estimated three-day debut of 32.2 million, putting its four-day domestic launch at a disappointing 40.7 million for powerhouse Disney. The race won't officially be called until Monday when final estimates are released for the long holiday weekend.
