We are getting closer to the Thanksgiving long weekend and the official start of the holiday shopping season. Because of this, there are plenty of great releases coming out this week, includingUp on a4-Disc Blu-ray / DVD Combo Pack, which is clearly DVD Pick of the Week material. Also a DVD Pick of the Week isMonsters, Inc. -4-Disc Blu-ray / DVD Combo Pack, while the late arrivingMonsters vs. Aliens -Blu-ray earns an honorable mention. With a massive list of releases, including nearly a dozen spotlight reviews, we have once again needed to split the release report into two parts.The first part can be foundhere.More...

August 18th, 2009
There were only fivenew releases to chartthis week, but three of those reached the top five. This includesRace to Witch Mountain, which sold 763,000 units earning $13.35 million during its first week on the home market.More...
August 18th, 2009
The same twonew releases that took the top two spots on thesales chart this week were also able to take the top two spots on the rental chart as well, but in the other order.Obsessed came out on top with 27% more rentals thanRace to Witch Mountain, but it is common for kids movies to do better on the sales chart than the rental chart.More...
August 13th, 2009
On the one hand, there were a lot ofnewreleases that chartedthis week. On the other hand, not a lot of them were particularly strong in terms of units sold. But that doesn't includeFast and Furious, which sold 1.72 million units and generated $27.90 million in consumer spending at retail.More...
August 13th, 2009
While there were fivenewreleases to reach the top 30 on the rental chart this week, only one of them reached the top ten. That new release wasFast and Furious, which placed first with roughly two thirds more rentals thanWatchmen.More...
August 5th, 2009
This was arguably the best week fornew releases since summer began with eight reaching thetop 30, including two new releases that finished first and second. Number one wasWatchmen with 1.23 million units sold generating $25.60 million in sales.More...
August 5th, 2009
New releases were not as plentiful on the rental chart as they were on thesales chart, mainly due to the fact that TV on DVD dominated the lower half of sales. The top two films were the same withWatchmen opening in first place with roughly 50% more rentals thanCoraline had.More...
August 3rd, 2009
A rather slow week for new releases with very few real first run releases that stand out. The best releases on this week's list areDollhouse - Season One onDVD orBlu-ray, as well asWatchmen -Three-Disc Director's Cut Blu-ray, but both of those came out in weeks past and are on this list because the screener arrived late. The best from this week isFlight of the Conchords -Season Two, which is the DVD Pick of the Week. However, if you areCanadian, you have to grabNothing Too Good for a Cowboy onDVD; it's your patriotic duty.More...
July 20th, 2009
Two of the most anticipated home market releases of the summer come out this week, and both of them are contenders for DVD Pick of the Week.The Watchmen andCoralineBlu-rayreleases are both worth picking up, and must-haves for their fans. Also in the mix isThe Middleman -The Complete Series, which despite its short run packs a lot of entertainment. If I were forced to choose just one to buy, it would probably beCoraline, but all three are DVD Picks of the Week.More...
April 12th, 2009
Marley & Me fell to sixth place, but it is nearing $100 million internationally. This past weekend it added $5.97 million on 2860 screens in 33 markets for a total of $83.34 million. The film opened in second place in Italy with $2.00 million on 348 screens, which is on par with expectations. Meanwhile, it added $1.23 million on 464 screens in the U.K. for a total of $18.41 million after four weeks while it made $1.01 million on 439 screens in Japan for a total of $5.17 million after two. It is still aiming at $100 million internationally, but it could be close.More...
April 5th, 2009
Duplicity doubled its international haul over the weekend landing in sixth place with $6.47 million on 1811 screens in 20 markets for a total of $12.21 million. The film opened in fourth place in France with $2.01 million on 380 screens, while it managed fourth in Russia as well, but with a much weaker $873,000 on 265 screens. It did hold on better than most in the U.K. down just 31% to $775,000 on 355 screens over the weekend for a total of $2.68 million after two.More...
March 31st, 2009
It was an amazing weekend at the box office as all six films on this list beat expectations. Granted, some times that was by the smallest of margins, but after two down weeks in a row we will take all the good news we can. Speaking of good news, the overall box office shot up by 39% from last weekend to $146 million. More importantly, that was 38% more than the same weekendlast year. Year-to-date, 2009 has now pulled in $2.38 billion, which is 12% higher than last year's pace. With April of '08 starting slowly, we have a great chance to extend the lead this coming weekend.More...
March 29th, 2009
Watchmen fell out of the top five with $6.35 million on 4965 screens in 53 markets for a total of $60.63 million. Unless it is a big hit in Japan over the weekend, $100 million internationally is likely out of the question, as is $200 million worldwide. Depending on how much it costs to advertise, it could still make enough to show a profit, but it could take quite a bit longer than the studio would have liked.More...
March 24th, 2009
It was a relatively predictable weekend at the box office with all five films finishing in the right order and within an acceptable margin of error. The main difference was the top three films were more spread out than expected, which gaveKnowing a much easier win. Overall, the box office pulled in $105 million, which was 4.5% higher than last weekend, but as expected, it was 6.6% lower than the same weekend last year. Year-to-date 2009 has pulled in $2.20 billion, which is 12% higher than last year's pace.More...
March 19th, 2009
There could be quite a race for top spot on top of the weekend box office with all three wide releases with a shot at coming out on top.Knowing,I Love You, Man, andDuplicity all have their strengths, and weaknesses, and this has led to analysts being divided on which movie will win. They are less divided on the chances they will keep up withlast year'snumber one film, and it appears it will be another losing weekend for 2009. However, that should change next weekend.More...
March 18th, 2009
Marley & Me jumped to the top of the international box office pulling in $14.14 million on 2559 screens in 29 markets for a total of $49.01 million. Its best market was the U.K. where it opened in first place with $6.15 million on 467 screens, while it placed second in Russia $1.58 million on 517 screens over the weekend for a total of $2.04 million. As far as holdovers go, the film managed $2.04 million on 550 screens over the weekend for a total of $5.72 million after two. Meanwhile in France, it earned $1.29 million on 354 screens over the weekend for a total of $4.11 million, also after two. The film opens in Spain this weekend, Japan next weekend, and Italy the weekend after that.More...
March 17th, 2009
For the first time in a long time, 2009 showed signs of weakness at the box office as all three new releases were unable to match expectations. Overall the box office was down 14% from last weekend to $101 million. More troubling was the fact that is was down 16% from the same weekendlast year. However, to be fair, this weekend last year saw the debut ofHorton Hears a Who, which was the biggest hit of 2008 at that point and opened with $45 million.More...
March 15th, 2009
Disney remakeRace to Witch Mountain made a solid debut over the weekend, according to studio estimates released on Sunday morning.The adventure movie picked up about $25 million, enough for a comfortable first place.Watchmen, which was widely tipped to earn a second weekend on top, dropped 67% to $18.07 million, not far ahead of Universal remakeLast House on the Left, which earned a decent $14.86 million opening.More...
March 13th, 2009
There are some who think there will be a close race for first place on the box office chart this weekend withWatchmen having a shot at repeating on top ahead ofRace to Witch Mountain. I am not one of those people. After bowing to the majority two weeks in a row, I thinkWatchmen will see a bigger than expected drop-off, whileRace to Witch Mountain will open with a larger than expected box office. On a related note, 2009's winning streak over 2008 could come to an end, as this weekendlast year saw the debut ofHorton Hears a Who, which opened with $45 million. That's more than the consensus prediction for the top film over this weekend. In fact, it could be more than the three new releases will earn combined.More...

The winners of ourHow Many Will Watch the Watchman? contest were determined and they are...More...
March 11th, 2009
Watchmen opened in top spot on the international charts, but with a weaker than expected figure. Much weaker in some markets. The film did top the charts in the U.K. with $4.52 million on 419 screens and in Australia with $2.29 million on 226, which is a great start for this time of year, but not a monster opening some were predicting. It placed first in Italy, but with a soft opening of $1.48 million on 344 screens, and the same was true in South Korea ($1.44 million on 397) and in Mexico ($722,000 on 417). The film had to settle for second place in Russia with $2.60 million on 554 screens and in France with $2.49 million on 517. Third was the best the movie could do in Germany ($2.03 million on 367 screens) and in Spain ($1.94 million on 426). Overall it did finish in first place with $26.63 million on 5,149 screens in 44 markets, but with only a couple of major markets left to open in, and the likelihood of massive drop-offs, this film will likely not match its domestic total, and might not top $100 million internationally. This is bad news for a movie that some have suggested cost $200 million to make, but that likely includes worldwide P&A;, as well as the production budget. If it can make $300 million worldwide, then it will show a profit during its initial push on the home market. If it can make $200 million worldwide, then it will show a profit, eventually.More...
March 11th, 2009
Watchmen may have missed analysts' expectations overall, but it was stellar on IMAX. In fact, it earned nearly 10% of its domestic haul on just 124 screens nationwide. Domestically, it pulled in $5.4 million on 124 screens for an average of $43,863, while internationally it managed $727,000 on 29. Worldwide IMAX has added $6.2 million to the film's run so far, making it one of the biggest hits in the format's history.More...
March 11th, 2009
The overall box office leader,Watchmen, was also the leader on the per theater chart with an average of $15,291 in more than 3,600 theaters. This was below expectations of many, but still a strong start.Tokyo! andFados were able to reach the $10,000 mark with $11,730 and $10,823 respectively.More...
March 10th, 2009
Watchmen opened with the biggest weekend box office of the year so far, but it was below the record-breaking levels some predicted. That said, the overall box office was still up 4% from last weekend, and more importantly, up 8% from the same weekendlast year. Year-to-date, 2009 has brought in $1.96 billion, which is about 14% more than last year's pace. This is down from earlier in the year, but still very impressive nonetheless.More...
March 8th, 2009
Watchmen opened big over the weekend, earning a mighty $55.655 million, according to Warner Bros.' Sunday estimate.Impressive as that debut is, the movie did fade quite dramatically through the weekend after posting a $25.135 million opening day on Friday.Saturday's estimate stands at $18.7 million, down 25% from the movie's opening day, although the decline is slightly artifical because Friday's total includes $4.55 million from midnight shows.Sunday's projected of $11.8 million would be down 37% from Saturday, which is fairly typical for an opening weekend.Overall, it's a debut that Warner Bros. (and Fox, who has a gross participation deal) will be happy with, but the long-term performance of the movie is very hard to judge at this point.More...
March 8th, 2009
There are sixteen films on this week's list, but there are several films without any websites (or sites not in English). At the top of the list, there are only a few sites that rate above average, while the best of the best is13B's -Official Site.More...
March 6th, 2009
Watchmen made a great start to the weekend, earning $4.55 million in midnight shows, according to early estimates.That's approximately double the midnight grosses for300, and suggests an excellent weekend is on the way.All 124 IMAX midnight shows were reportedly sold out.More...
March 5th, 2009
Is it ironic that a film calledWatchmen is opening the same weekend we set our clocks ahead one hour? Perhaps this is part of some brilliant marketing strategy. Regardless,Watchmen is the only wide release of the week, and it has a lot of buzz surrounding it. So much so that it has a shot at breaking records, while earning more than all four big releaseslast year did combined.More...
March 1st, 2009
2009 got off to such a great start that I didn't think February would continue winning, but so far that has proven to be the case, for the most part. Now March has a great chance of continuing that run with several big hits, including three potential $100 million movies. At the beginning of the year, I didn't think there would be so many hits in March, but a high tide lifts all boats, and the more people see movies, the more trailers they see in theaters, and the more likely they are to watch the upcoming movies.More...
February 27th, 2009
Just one wide release next week, but it is a big one.Watchmen makes its highly anticipated debut on the big screen and opens in more than 3,500 theaters.More importantly, it is the target film this week. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening weekend box office ofWatchmen.Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday),without going over, will win a copy ofJet Li'sThe Enforcer onDVD, as well asThe Lucky Ones onDVD. Meanwhile, whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday),without going under, will winThe Protege onDVD, as well asEverybody Wants to be Italian onDVD. Entries must be received by 10 a.m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don't delay!More...
December 17th, 2008
The Day the Earth Stood Still missed expectations during its opening weekend, at least in regular theaters. On IMAX it was fantastic, earning an estimated $3.7 million on just 123 screens to give it a per IMAX average of $30,000. That's an average that is 3.5 times higher than its overall per theater average.More...
December 4th, 2008
WhileHarry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was pushed back to next summer and this left a gab in the IMAX schedule, it hasn't been entirely quiet lately. This week it was reported thatDolphins and Whales Tribes of the Ocean 3D reached $10 million worldwide, which is a great milestone for the film. The film continues to tour the United States, while it will make its debut in France, Mexico, and other markets in the coming months.More...

Server upgrades went... less smoothly than anticipated, which delayed this column, but at least there are a huge number of sites to check out. Many of these sites are making their first appearance on the list while quite a few are making their last appearance. Unfortunately, while it's a big list, there are not many that are even close to being award worthy at the moment.30 Days of Night -Official Site comes the closest, but I'm waiting for the missing features to be added before I make that decision.More...

Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published inMedia Play News.
For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey.
We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by theDigital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.
Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.
Full financial estimates for this film, including domestic and international box office, video sales, video rentals, TV and ancillary revenueare available through our research services. For more information, please contact us atresearch@the-numbers.com.
