1. Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice held onto the number 1 spot, but it had a massive drop at the box office money wise by taking an almost 70% drop.
2. Deadpool continues to hang on in the top 10 for the 8th consecutive week.
3. Meet the Blacks had a terrible opening weekend placement wise, but it was able to make back almost half of it's profit so expect this film to break even and potentially get a much not needed sequel.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice as it made 69.1% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Eye in the Sky as it made 324.9% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 1 for 5 on my predictions.

Predictions
1. Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice $35 Million
2. The Boss $20 Million
3. Zootopia $14 Million
4. Hardcore Henry $9 Million
5. My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 $7 Million
