Weekend Box Office - "Jurassic World" starring Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard and an all-star cast including a multitude of prehistoric creatures was number one for the second week in a row with $102 million, Disney Pixar's "Inside Out" featuring the voice talents of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, and Mindy Kaling  as the five emotions of an 11 year old girl named Riley opened at number two with $91 million, and "Spy" the action comedy starring Melissa McCarthy held on at number three with $10.5 million.

                                                                              

"Terminator Genisys" opens in theaters on July 1.This is not a reboot as much as a reset using the "Star Trek"movie angle of having everything reset by someone traveling back in time and altering the future. The best and most ironic part is that very same premise originally launched this franchise in the first place.

                                                                                

                                                                               
                                                                           
"The Martian" starring Matt Damon doesn't hit theaters until October. The movie is directed by Ridley Scott and based on a bestselling novel that tells the story of an astronaut left behind and given up for dead on Mars during an aborted mission. This movie looks like just the kind of riveting thought-provoking, yet enjoyable as hell science fiction worth seeing.
                                                                            
                                                                                  

"The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials" is the sequel to "The Maze Runner" and follows Thomas and the others who survived The Maze. In the sequel we find out the maze was a test to see if they could survive an even bigger challenge.
