1. Moana unsurprisingly held onto the number 1 spot at the box office but its reign will come to an end with Rogue One: A Star Wars Story being released this weekend.
2. Both Nocturnal Animals and Manchester by the Sea had great weekends after opening in more theaters and their box office will continue to grao as we get closer to Oscar season.
3. Doctor Strange continues to have a strong run at the box office as it slowly climbs the ladder of MCU films all-time box office.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Allied as it made 43.7% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Nocturnal Animals as it made 351.5% more than it did last weekend.
5. I wnet 4 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Rouge One: A Star Wars Story $155 Million
2. Moana $13 Million
3. Collateral Beauty $9 Million
1. Rouge One: A Star Wars Story $155 Million
