1. Straight Outta Compton continues to hold onto the number 1 spot at the box office
2. Even with 3 new releases, Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation has continued to stay in the top for the past month. 
3.Fantastic Four has completely fallen off the map as it is in the 10th spot after just being in theaters for 3 weeks.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Straight Outta Compton as it made 56.2% less than it did last weekend and there was no big winner. 
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions 


Predictions
1. Straight Outta Compton $20 Million
2. No Escape $11 Million
3. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation $8 Million
4. Sinister 2 $5 Million
5. Hitman: Agent 47 $4.5 Million
