1. Not much changed from last weekend as the top 6 remained the same from last weekend with no new releases coming out this past weekend and look for it not to change this weekend either. 
2. The one thing to keep your eyes on is Justice League and how it may not break the $700 million mark worldwide as it sits at $569 million, but it only has one more week with no massive releases coming out before The Last Jedi hits theaters next weekend. The $700 million mark is important becasue that is how much Justice League will need to at least break even and anything above that will be money made back. It's gonna be a tough road but it might happen over the next few weeks and probably be a photo finish. 
3. Both Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Lady Bird had really great weekends after having been expanded into more theaters. 
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Justice League as it made 59.5% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Lady Bird as it made 5.8% more than it did last weekend. 
5. I went 5 for 5 on my predictions. 

Predictions
1. Coco $20 Million
2. Justice League $12 Million
3. Wonder $9 Million
4. Thor: Ragnarok $5 Million
5. Daddy's Home 2 $4 Million
