There were nine international releases making their debuts on the charts this week, as well as several holdovers. International Details - International Releases are Enthralling Despite the weakness at the top, there are still more than enough total releases to cause this column to stretch into two parts. Regardless of these issues, both releases are worthy of the DVD Pick of the Week. This American Life - Season Two is a safer pick, but it is a Borders Exclusive release. Repo! The Genetic Opera on Blu-ray is a clear contender for that title, but its lack of mass appeal is troublesome. With no big releases, we had to look other places for the DVD Pick of the Week. There are five such releases on this week's list, but they has a combined haul of around $130 million, and nearly $100 million of that came from two films. New releases were just as spread out on the rental chart as they were on the sales chart, including taking the top two spots with Max Payne generating about 25% more revenue than Saw V.Ī terrible week for first run releases.

This includes a surprise number one film, Open Season 2, which took first place with 554,000 units sold, and it was the only release to crack $10 million with opening week sales of $11.07 million.ĭVD Rentals - Lake Viewed on the Home Market New releases dominated the DVD sales chart this week, taking the top three spots, four of the top five, and seven of the top ten. As has happened pretty much every week this year, there are so many DVDs on this week's list that is had to be split into two. There are a large number of DVDs worth checking out, but looking at the top of the list, I think Christopher Titus - Love is Evol is the best DVD coming out this week, and the winner of the DVD Pick of the Week. This felt like a slow week to me, but looking at the list there were 15 spotlight reviews, which is a huge amount for one week. This week it was a close race as it earned just over 10% more than the second place Madagascar 2 - Escape to Africa. Lakeview Terrace repeated on top of the rental chart this week, despite there being four new releases trying to cram into the top five. DVD Rentals - Lake has Lingering View on top of Rental Chart
