As far as Pick of the Week candidates go, Quartet on DVD or Blu-ray is the best choice. There are some limited releases that help the overall quality, but it is still a bad week. There are several first-run releases, the biggest of which was Jack the Giant Killer, which bombed at the box office. That is to say, it's a bad week on the home market. It's another typical summer week on the home market. The overall Blu-ray share remained solid at 44% in terms of units and 52% in terms of revenue.ĭVD and Blu-ray Releases for June 18th, 2013 That's not great, but it is good enough to call it a victory. 8% more units were sold, but 4% less revenue was generated. Compared to last year, things were more mixed. Sales were up 52% in terms of units and 46% in terms of revenue, reaching 1.58 million units / $34.71 million. There were a handful of new releases to reach the top 20 on the Blu-ray sales chart this week, led by Oz the Great and Powerful, and this helped the overall Blu-ray market recover from last week. It sold 319,000 units and generated $4.79 million in revenue, which is weak given the film's production budget. Granted, Jack the Giant Slayer did earn first place, but it was the only new release in the top five. New releases were rather sparse on the June 23rd, 2013 edition of the DVD sales chart. Jack the Giant Slayer earned first place with 234,000 units / $5.42 million, giving it an opening week Blu-ray share of 42%. There were five new releases to reach the chart on the June 23rd, 2013 edition of the Blu-ray sales chart, but most of them missed the top five. DVD sales held on better on a week-over-week comparison, which resulted in the overall Blu-ray share falling to 33% in terms of units and 42% in terms of revenue. Fortunately, this was still better than last year by 16% in terms of units and 19% in terms of revenue. This was 44% lower in terms of units and 38% lower in terms of revenue. Overall 858,000 units were sold generating $20.83 million in total sales. Sadly, it led this week's list of new releases, which explains why the overall Blu-ray sales were so much weaker than last week. However, it bombed in theaters and it is doing no better on the home market.
#JACK THE GIANT KILLER 2012 MOVIE#
You don't spend nearly $200 million on a movie unless you think it will be a monster hit.
Jack the Giant Slayer was thought to be a potential monster hit at the box office. Home Market Numbers: Jack Slays the Home Market It was only a midlevel hit at the box office, so this opening is on par with expectations, given the current state of the overall DVD market. None were major hits, but at least The Call earned first place with 225,000 units / $3.88 million during its first week of release. There was a quartet of new releases spread throughout the June 30th, 2013 edition of the DVD sales chart. That said, Jack the Giant Killer remained in first place with 90,000 units / $2.24 million over the week for a total of 313,000 units / $7.40 million after two. There were only three new releases to chart on the June 30th, 2013 edition of the Blu-ray sales chart, but all three of them reached the top ten. Despicable Me rose to first place with 196,000 units / $2.19 million for the week for totals of 8.96 million units / $147.10 million.īlu-ray Sales: Holdovers Slay New Releases
The new releases were terrible this week with only two of them reaching the top 30 and none of them reached the top 5 on the July 7th, 2013 DVD sales chart. This puts it just outside of the top 20 on the All-Time Blu-ray Chart, and it has already made it there as of the writing of this column. Leading the way was Despicable Me with 88,000 units / $1.23 million for the week and 2.35 million units / $58.37 million after more than two-and-a-half years of release. New releases were even worse on the July 7th, 2013 edition of the Blu-ray sales chart than they were on the DVD sales chart.
