1. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children shocked everyone by taking the one spot at the box offcie
2. After being delayed due to the bankruptcy of Relativity Media, Masterminds had a decent weekend, but it doesn't look like it is going to help the studio
3. For the first time in 9 weeks, Suicide Squad is no longer in the top 10. leaving Don't Breathe as the longest reigning film at 6 weeks.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was The Magnificent Seven (2016) as it made 55% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Queen of Katwe as it made 718.4% more than it did last weekend.
