1. While Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man Tell No Tales grabbed the number one spot, it had the second lowest opening weekend of the franchise only ahead of the first film when no expected it to be good whereas many expected this film to be bad.
2. Beauty and the Beast continues to stay in the top 10 for the 11th straight weekend and it could make it at least one more weekend.
3. With this past weekends intake, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 entered into the top 5 of the highest grossing MCU films of all-time.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Alien: Covenant as it made 63% 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. Wonder Woman $87 million
2. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man Tell No Tales $29 Million
3. Baywatch $13 Million
4. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 $11 Million
5. Captain Underpants; The First Epic Movie $9 Million
