1. Hidden Figures surprisingly took over the number one spot with a solid first weekend of expansion.
2. Underworld: Blood Wars was the only new release to crack the top 10 and it had the lowest opening weekend of the franchise so far.
3. Moana continues to hang on in the top 10 for a 7th consecutive weekend.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Rogue One: A Star Wars Story as it made 55.5% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Hidden Figures as it made 2,556.6% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 0 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Monster Trucks $23 Million
2. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story $12 Million
3. Hidden Figures $10 Million
