1. Kung Fu Panda 3 took the number one spot, but it does have the lowest opening weekend out of the entire Kung Fu Panda franchise.
2. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens continues to inch closer and closer to crossing $1 billion domestically and it should cross the $2 bullion mark worldwide.
3. Fifty Shades of Black had a pretty disappointing opening weekend and it shows that audiences are tired of seeing Marlon Waynes spoof movies.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Ride Along 2 as it made 32.3% less than it did last weekend and there was no big winner for the weekend.
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Kung Fu Panda 3 $23 Million
2. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies $20 Million
3. Hail, Caesar! $15 Million
3. Hail, Caesar! $15 Million
4. The Revenant $10 Million
5. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens $8 Million
