1. The Boss Baby once again came in at the number 1 spot and it helps push the film over the $200 million mark worldwide and this very well could lead to a sequel.
2. Beauty and the Beast had another solid weekend and by the time next Monday rolls around, it will have crossed the $1 billion mark.
3. Both The Smurfs: The Lost Village and Going in Style had solid opening weekends and it looks as if they will both make their budget back.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Ghost in the Shell as it made 60.9% less than it did last weekend and there was no biggest winner of the weekend.
5. I went 1 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. The Fate of the Furious $128 Million
2. The Boss Baby $15 Million
3. Beauty and the Beast (2017) $13 Million
4. Smurfs: The Lost Village $7 Million
5. Going in Style $5 Million
So ladies and gentlemen what do you think of this weekend's box office totals and what are some of your takeaways? Let me know in the comments section below and let your voice be heard.
