1. The Accountant surprisingly took over the number one sport at the box office with an impressive + $24 million opening.
2. Kevin Hart: What Now? had a really solid opening weekend compared to other stand-up specials and it may be one of the highest grossing ones of all-time.
3. Sully continues to hang on the top 10 after being in it for 6 weeks, but it could fall out next week.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was The Birth of a Nation (2016) as it made 60.8% less than it did last weekend and there was no biggest winner of the weekend.
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions.

Predictions
1. Ouija: Origin of Evil $23 Million
2. Jack Reacher: Never Go Back $19 Million
3. Boo! A Madea Halloween $15 Million
4. The Accountant $11 Million
5. Keeping Up with the Joneses $8 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.
