1. For the third straight week, Coco took over the number one spot at the box office, but that reign will come to an end with Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi coming out this weekend.
2. Just Getting Started was the only wide new release of the weekend, but it only came in 10th place for the weekend.
3. After this weekends numbers, it looks like Justice League will not cross the $700 million mark as it sits at $614 Million worldwide and the prospects don't look too great.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Justice League as it made 42% less than it did last weekend and the biggest winner of the weekend was The Disaster Artist as it made 425.6% more than it did last weekend.
5. I went 3 for 5 on my predictions.
Predictions
1. Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi $230 Million
2. Coco $8 Million
3. Justice League $4 Million
4. Ferdinand $3 Million
5. Wonder $1 Million
