1. In shocking upset, The Boss took the number 1 spot from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice despite having terrible reviews.
2. Batman v. Superman is pushing along, but the film may not break even at the box office after a combined $400 million production/marketing budget.
3. Zootopia continues to stay strong in the top 3 for the 6th week in a row.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice as it made 54.5% less than it did last weekend and there was no biggest winner this weekend. 
5. I went 1 for 5 on my predictions.

Predictions
1. The Jungle Book (2016) $75 Million
2. Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice $15 Million
3. The Boss $10 Million
4. Zootopia $7 Million
5. Barbershop: The Next Cut $5 Million
