1. Captain America: Civil War unsurprisingly took over the number one spot and it was able to have the highest opening weekend for a MCU standalone film.
2. Zootopia continues to stay strong in the top 10 for the 10th consecutive weekend in a row and it looks to stay there for at least a couple of more weeks.
3. Mother's Day had a huge increase and it should've been expected with yesterday being Mother's Day
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Ratchet & Clank as it made 69.9% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Mother's Day as it made 32.5% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions.

Predictions
1. Captain America: Civil War $95 Million
2. The Jungle Book (2016) $18 Million
3. The Darkness $14 Million
4. Money Monster $10 Million
5. Mother's Day $7 Million
