1. For the second weekend in a row, Kingsman: The Golden Circle was able to hold onto the number one spot, but will probably give it up after this upcoming weekend.
2. Not to pour salt in the the wound, but to go along with terrible reviews, Flatliners (2017) made less than the original did and the original only made $10 million on its opening weekend back in 1990 so the studio will more than likely lose quite a bit of money.
3. It (2017) was able to hold onto the number 2 spot by barely edging out American Made by only $126,000, which is one of the slimmer margins you'll see in the top 10.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Kingsman: The Golden Circle as it made 56.6% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was Battle of the Sexes as it made 563% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 3 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Blade Runner: 2049 $67 Million
2. The Mountain Between Us $19 Million
2. The Mountain Between Us $19 Million
3. My Little Pony $14 Million
4. Kingsman: The Golden Circle $12 Million
5. It (2017) $11 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.
