1. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation once again took over the number one spot.
2. Fantastic Four (2015) had a less than stellar weekend and missed projections by over $20 million.
3. For the first time in 8 weeks we neither have Jurassic World or Inside Out in the top 10.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Pixels as it made 48.3% less than it did last week and there was no big winner 
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions.


Predictions
1. Straight Outta Compton $30 Million
2. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. $25 Million
3. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation $15 Million
4. Fantastic Four $10 Million
5. The Gift $7 Million

        So ladies and gentlemen what do you think of this weekend's box office totals and what are some of your takeaways? Let me know in the comments section below and let your voice be heard.
