Here are the weekend domestic box office results for the weekend of 8-14-15 to 8-16-15 as well as my 5 key takeaways, as well as my predictions for the top 5 films at the box office this weekend. So without further ado...
Box Office Totals courtesy of boxofficemojo.com
1. Straight Outta Compton exceeded every expectation while making $60 million and taking over the number 1 spot.
2. Fantastic Four (2015) took a pretty big drop this weekend and looks as if it will be a financial failure.
3. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation continues to pull in strong numbers in its third week of release
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Fantastic Four as it made 68.2% less than it did last weekend and there was no big winner.
5. I went 3 for 5 on my predictions.
