1. Spider-Man: Homecoming took over the number one spot at the box office and it did quite better than some people thought and it sets a high bar for the sequels coming out over the next few years. 
2. Once again Wonder Woman makes this list as it now with this past weekends intake, it now is the second highest grossing film of the DCEU worldwide which is just another remarkable achievement for a fantastic film. 
3. The Big Sick had a solid opening weekend in limited release and it bodes well for the film as it goes nationwide this weekend. 
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Transformers: The Last Knight as it made 62.2% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was The Big Sick as it made 116.5% more than it did last weekend.  
5. I went 5 for 5 on my predictions. 

Predictions
1. War for the Planet of the Apes $87 Million
2. Spider-Man: Homecoming $51 Million
3. Despicable Me 3 $16 Million
4. The Big Sick $12 Million
5. Baby Driver $9 Million
