1. Despite terrible reviews, Suicide Squad was able to break box office records and took over the number one spot at the box office.
2. Ghostbusters (2016) continues to be a box office bomb as it isn't nowhere close to breaking even.
3. For the first time in 2 months Finding Dory is no longer in the top 10.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Jason Bourne as it made 62.2% less than it did last weekend and there was no biggest winner of the weekend.
5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Suicide Squad $55 Million
2. Sausage Party $31 Million
1. Suicide Squad $55 Million
2. Sausage Party $31 Million
3. Jason Bourne $15 Million
4. Pete's Dragon $12 Million
