Box Office June 8-10, 2018

Ocean’s 8 premiered in the Number One spot at the box office over the weekend with $41.5 Million. That take at the box office is a great beginning to a new heist franchise (which I am sure now has been greenlit).

Deadpool 2 was Third with $13.6 Million for $278.6 Million so far. World-wide, the film has made $655.2 Million.

Hereditary premiered in Fourth Place with $13 Million.

Avengers: Infinity War was Fifth with $6.8 Million for $654.7 Million so far. World-wide, Avengers: Infinity War has made $1.99 Billion.

Adrift, Book Club, Hotel Artemis (which premiered this weekend), Upgrade, and Life of the Party rounded out the Top Ten respectively.
