We’ve reviewed every summer movie season since 1980 to find out which are the best, and which are the worst. Last week we posted our picks for the worst, and here we post our picks for the best. 

Summer movie season is a magic time of year when Hollywood traditionally rolls out its most appealing merchandise. It’s true that some summer movie seasons are better than others. This is our ranking of all the summer movie seasons since 1980 from worst to best. 

Although the weekend’s new releases, Money Monster and The Darkness, performed above expectations it was not quite enough to score a victory.  For the second straight weekend, the box office belonged to Disney with the top two slots being claimed by Captain America: Civil War and The Jungle Book. 

It was a slow weekend at the box office, and although numbers were okay no one had any totals really worth bragging about, but The Revenant managed to win the race, beating out all the newcomers for the weekend.  

Three weekends have come and gone since The Force Awakens opened, and it is still going strong.  In fact, the total was more than double the second place gross estimate this weekend.  Not to mention how badly it spanked The Hateful Eight on its opening weekend.

As predicted, The Force Awakens retained its top spot over the holiday weekend.  Along with its other achieved records, the film has grossed over $1 billion dollars total now and just had the second largest weekend.

Is it any surprise who reigned supreme at the movies this weekend?  If so, you had to have been completely off grid the past couple weeks.  Come inside to check out the full breakdown of this weekend's box office. 

Although Ron Howard's In The Heart Of The Sea put a good fight, it looks like the Mockingjay pulled off yet another victory at the box office.  At less than a $300 thousand lead, it claimed the top spot over the weekend.
