1. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle held onto the number one spot for the third consecutive weekend and it continues it's impressive run. It's one of the bigger surprises of 2017 and it's shocking to say that this film made more than Justice League did worldwide.
2. Both 12 Strong and Den of Thieves has really solid opening weekends and could have decent runs of the next couple of weeks.
3. Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi remains in the top 10 and it continues to climb the box office worldwide charts.
4. The biggest loser of the weekend was Insidious: The Last Key as it made 52.7% 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. Maze Runner: The Death Cure $30 Million
2. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle $14 Million
3. 12 Strong $9 Million
4. Desolation $7 Million
5. Den of Thieves $6 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.
