The 5 biggest winners and losers at the box office this summer

With all the major releases having hit the big screen,the 2016 summer movie season has come to a close, and that means it's time to look back on what workedand what didn't.Though the lack of success by sequels was a big takeaway from this summer season, Disney was responsible for two that worked the best, "Finding Dory" and "Captain America: Civil War."Then there were the titles that shocked us with surprising success and failure. "Cafe Society:" good, "Suicide Squad:"bad.Here we break down the five big winners and losers at the box office this summer.SEE ALSO:15 celebrities you didn't realize own business empiresWINNER: "Finding Dory"In a summer where long-gestated sequels turned out to be box office poison for studios (more on that below), the 13 year wait for the sequel to "Finding Nemo" didn't seem to hurt Disney/Pixar."Finding Dory" isn't just the top earner of the summer at the domestic box office with over $476 million,it's the top earner of the entire year (so far).LOSER: "Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping" It's sad to say, but no one wanted to see the comedy group The Lonely Island make a "This Is Spinal Tap" for Millennials. Andy Samberg and his partners Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone created a hilarious look at a pop star's rise and fall, but the movie is one of the biggest bombs of the summer. "Popstar" only took in a minuscule $9.4 million.Mark my words: I expect this movie to become a cult hit in the years to come, just like The Lonely Island's "Hot Rod." WINNER: DisneyThough not every title has been a hit this summer for Disney (remember "Alice Through the Looking Glass" and "The BFG"'), the big ones performed as they should.Along with the success of "Finding Dory," "Captain America: Civil War" took in over $407 million domestically (over $1 billion worldwide) continuingthe dominance Disney's property Marvel has over the superhero movie genre.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
