1. Deadpool continue to put a stranglehold on the box office as it claims the number one spot for the 3rd consecutive weekend.
2. Despite terrible reviews, Gods of Egypt was able to claim the number two spot.
3. For the first time in its 11 week run, Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens fell out of the top 10. 
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Deadpool as it made 44.9% less than it did last weekend. The biggest winner of the weekend was The Revenant as it made 2.2% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 1 for 5 on my predictions.

Predictions
1. Zootopia $65 Million
2. London Has Fallen $30 Million
3. Deadpool $20 Million
4. Gods of Egypt $9 Million
5. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot $8 Million
