1. The Lego Batman Movie surprisingly took over the number one spot this weekend and upsetting Fifty Shades Darker.

2. Speaking of Fifty Shades Darker, compared to Fifty Shades of Grey, it made $39 million less than its predecessor did which isn't good for the franchise with one more film to be released. 

3. John Wick Chapter 2 had a really solid opening weekend boding well for a third installment in the franchise as it more than doubled what John Wick made in its opening weekend

4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Sing as it made 58% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Lion as it made 5.1% more than it did last weekend.

5. I went 2 for 5 on my predictions. 

Predictions
1. The Lego Batman Movie $30 Million
2. Fifty Shades Darker $22 Million
3. The Great Wall $19 Million

4. John Wick Chapter 2 $13 Million
5. Fist Fight $10 Million
