1. Goosebumps unsurprisingly took the number 1 spot from The Martian this weekend.

2. Pan has become a financial flop as it has only made $25 million domestically and $73 million internationally on $150 million budget with only more competition to come. 

3. Woodlawn had a solid opening despite being in the least amount of theaters of the films in the this weekends top 10.

4. The biggest loser of the weekend was the aforementioned Pan as it made 61.7% less than it did last weekend and there was no big winner from last weekend.

5. I went 5 for 5 on my predictions

Predictions

1. Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension $40 Million

2. The Last Witch Hunter $ 15 Million
3. The Martian $13 Million

4. Goosebumps $11 Million

5. Bridge of Spies $ 8 Million
