Blu-ray Sales: Steel Grabs the Loot

There was no competition on the Blu-ray sales chart, as Real Steel topped all new releases and holdovers by a healthy margin. It sold 799,000 units and generated $22.36 million in sales giving it an opening week Blu-ray share of 54%. Hopefully we will see a lot more films crack 50% as the winter blockbusters start to come out.
Paranormal Activity 3 opened in a distant second place with 202,000 units / $4.03 million. It hasn't been released on DVD yet, so obviously it has a 100% Blu-ray share.
50/50 opened in third place, just as it did on DVD, as it sold 133,000 units earning $2.40 million. The film's opening week Blu-ray share was 45%, which is incredibly strong for a non-action film. If its share was 10 percentage points lower it would have still been a good start.

Moneyball fell from second to fourth with 81,000 units / $1.97 million. After three weeks of release, it has sold 665,000 units and generated $14.40 million in Blu-ray sales, which is strong for this genre.

The Lion King returned to the chart in fifth place with 48,000 units / $1.09 million for the week. After four months of release, the film has sold 3.7 million units and generated $98 million in sales. It's very rare for a catalog title to reach $100 million in total Blu-ray sales, so this is fantastic.
The only other new release to chart was Transformers Trilogy Box Set with 24,000 units / $949,000.
The overall Blu-ray market rocketed back to life this week growing week-over-week by 97% in terms of units and 102% in terms of dollars.
It also grew compared to last year, albeit by smaller margins of 9% in terms of units and 26% in terms of dollars. DVD sales were not as fortunate falling a little bit from last week and substantially compared to last year. This helped the overall Blu-ray share climb to 44% in terms of units and 53% in terms of dollars, which is a huge improvement over last week and last year.
Next week there are a number of Blu-ray releases, but mostly for films that disappointed at the box office.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon does have a 3D Blu-ray Combo Pack, but I'm unsure how well that will sell. Last year's best selling DVD was Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2, but the best selling Blu-ray was Red, which repeated on top with just 172,000 units. Hopefully we can beat that.

DVD Sales: Real as Tough as Steel
This was not a deep week for new releases, as only two of them cracked the top 30. (One major new release was only released as a Blu-ray / DVD combo pack, so we will get to those numbers shortly.)
We did have a new number one on the DVD sales chart, as Real Steel sold 691,000 units and generated $12.03 million in revenue. This is not a great start, but it performed better on Blu-ray.
Courageous was pushed to second place with 188,000 units / $3.20 million for the week for totals of 599,000 units / $10.18 million after two. It was an inexpensive movie to make, so this is a great result so far.
50/50 placed third with 165,000 units / $2.47 million. This is not a huge number, but the film only cost $8 million to make, so the studio should be happy.
Moneyball held strong and remained in fourth place with 132,000 units / $2.41 million for the week for totals of 773,000 units / $13.50 million after three. Abduction fell to fifth place with 88,000 units / $1.33 million for the week and 298,000 units / $4.49 million after two. It continues to disappoint.
No other new releases made the chart.

'Drive' Puts It in Gear, Tops Sales and Rental Charts
8 Feb, 2012
By: Thomas K. Arnold

Drive
Now that the big theatrical tentpoles from last summer and fall have all been released, the studios are clearing out their vaults in preparation for the next big burst of home video sales activity, which should begin Feb. 11 with the release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part I.
As a result, the sales and rental charts are full of theatrical underperformers and direct-to-video releases that are awaiting their moment in the sun on disc.
Four of the five top-selling discs for the week ended Feb. 5 are new releases. None hit the $40 million box office mark, and three sold more copies on Blu-ray Disc than they did on standard DVD.
Debuting at No. 1 on both the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert sales chart, which tracks overall disc sales, and Nielsen’s dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart is Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s Drive, a crime drama starring Ryan Gosling that earned just slightly more than $35 million in its September 2011 theatrical release. Drive generated 57% of its first-week sales from Blu-ray Disc.
On First Alert, the No. 2 spot went to Walt Disney Studios’ Treasure Buddies, the latest installment in the successful kid-friendly film franchise about a group of mischievous pups.
On the Blu-ray Disc chart, the No. 2 spot went to 20th Century Fox’s In Time, a sci-fi thriller starring Justin Timberlake with a $37.5 million domestic theatrical take. In Time generated 54% of its sales from Blu-ray Disc.
In Time debuted at No. 3 on First Alert, just ahead of Disney’s Real Steel, the previous week’s top seller. Rounding out the top 5 is Universal Studios’ The Thing, a prequel to the 1982 John Carpenter classic of the same name, which earned just $16.9 million in theaters. The Thing generated 55% of its sales from Blu-ray Disc.
Real Steel and The Thing also finished at No. 4 and No. 5 on Nielsen’s Blu-ray Disc sales chart, with the No. 3 spot going to Transformers: Dark of the Moon, recently re-released as a 3D Blu-ray.
On Home Media Magazine’s video rental chart for the week, Drive debuted at No. 1, bumping the prior week’s top rental, Real Steel, to No. 2.
Warner’s Contagion, coming off its holdback from Redbox and Netflix, jumped to No. 3 from No. 57 the previous week.

New releases dominated the Blu-ray sales chart with as many as four in the top five. (Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a bit of an odd case, but more on that in a second.)
Drive led the way with 420,000 units / $8.39 million giving it an opening week Blu-ray share of 57%. This is a great opening compared to the film's theatrical run.
In Time also did better on Blu-ray than it did on DVD earning second place with 306,000 units / $6.12 million for an opening week Blu-ray share of 54%. This is the type of film that should thrive on Blu-ray, so it is no real surprise it cracked 50%.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon returned to the chart in third place with 190,000 units / $3.82 million for the week giving it a total of 3.19 million units / $68.03 million. It was able to get back into the top five thanks to the release of the 3D Box Set, but we don't have a breakdown between the new release and the previous Blu-ray release.
Real Steel fell from first to fourth with 187,000 units / $5.24 million for the week giving it totals of 989,000 units / $27.69 million after two.
The Thing rounded out the top five with 168,000 units / $4.03 million, which was 55% of total units sold. Its theatrical run and its home market debut is weak, but that Blu-ray share is strong.
Treasure Buddies just missed the top five with 105,000 units / $2.66 million. Its opening Blu-ray share was 22%, which is low for the format as a whole, but strong for a live action kids' movie.
Dream House managed ninth place, which is what it earn on the DVD sales chart as well. It sold 55,000 unit while generating $1.25 million in opening week sales giving it a Blu-ray share of just 38%. I was expecting more.
To Kill a Mockingbird made its Blu-ray debut in tenth place with 43,000 units / $782,000. This is excellent for a catalog title and the studio should be very happy.
Star Trek: The Next Generation also made its Blu-ray debut this week with The Next Level, which was right behind at 43,000 units / $648,000. This is excellent for a TV on DVD release, especially one that is this old and is merely a taste of future releases.
The Big Year was further back in 14th place with 38,000 units / $894,000. Its hard to spin this number in a positive fashion, but its Blu-ray share of 31% is better than average for the genre.
Finally, we get to The Double in 19th place with 26,000 units / $394,000. It also earned a Blu-ray share of 31%, but action films should perform better than that.
The overall Blu-ray was strong compared to last week and last year. It grew 16% in terms of units and 3% in terms of revenue from last week, which is actually a little weaker than DVD sales grew from last week.
However, its growth was more explosive when compared to last year up 79% in terms of units and 78% in terms of dollars.
As usual, DVD sales were lower than last year, albeit by a more modest margin than we've seen in the recent past. The overall Blu-ray share was mostly steady compared to last week sitting at 44% in terms of units and 49% in terms of revenue. If it can maintain that level while we wait for the winter blockbusters to come out, I will be very happy.

Next week we have good news / bad news. The good news is The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1 comes out. The bad news is, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1 comes out. While the film should sell a lot of DVDs, I don't think its Blu-ray share will be great. Plus, it doesn't come out till Saturday, so only the first two days will count towards this week.
On a more positive note, last year's new releases were terrible, both on DVD and on Blu-ray. In fact, the number one selling Blu-ray was Paranormal Activity 2 at just over 100,000 units. Breaking Dawn, Part 1 should top that. Hell, A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas could top that.

DVD Sales: Searching for Treasure on the Home Market
While there were a lot of new releases on this week's DVD sales chart, it was clearly a case of quantity over quality as even the best selling release was merely mediocre.
Treasure Buddies was top dog with sales of 381,000 units / $6.47 million during its opening week. This is roughly in line with the previous installment, but below average for the franchise.
Drive was relatively close behind with 313,000 units / $4.87 million. Hopefully it performed better on Blu-ray, as this was not a great start on DVD.
Real Steel fell to third place with 265,000 units / $5.30 million for the week giving it totals of 962,000 units / $17.43 million after two. It wasn't that long ago that even a second-tier release would sell more than 1 million units in the opening week, but the market has really atrophied in recent years.
In Time opened in fourth place with 263,000 units / $3.94 million, which is weak, even compared to its theatrical run. The Thing barely managed a spot in the top five during its opening week with 136,000 units / $2.37 million. It was a non-factor for it theatrical run and now it's struggling on the home market.
There were three more new releases to chart, but they were barely worth mentioning. Dream House placed ninth, but with just 90,000 units / $1.62 million while The Big Year was right behind with 82,000 units / $1.23 million. The final new release to chart was The Double, which only managed 12th place with 58,000 units / $609,000 units. This is not terrible, for a limited release that barely avoided the Mendoza Line during its opening weekend; however, the studio was obviously hoping for a lot more when it gave the film the greenlight.

A 'Twilight' and a 'Tramp'

7 Feb, 2012
By: John Latchem

Walmart's 'Lady and the Tramp' with dish set
Ordinarily, Disney’s Blu-ray re-release of Lady and the Tramp would have attracted the vast majority of retail attention its first week out.
Indeed, Target offered an $8 discount with purchase of the new Blu-ray and one of several previous Disney Blu-rays. Best Buy offered a Lady plush, as well as a $5 discount if customers turned in an old Disney DVD. And Walmart offered the Blu-ray packaged with a dinner bowl, fork and spoon.
Then there’s the release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn —Part 1 on disc.
Target went the most all-out with its in-store displays and advertising. The chain’s weekly ad circular included a four-page insert of “Twilight” merchandise, including tie-in books, CDs, T-shirts, jewelry, cellphone accessories and more. Target also promoted a contest to stay at the island resort featured in the film, at www.IsleEsmeSweepstakes.com.
Target has a special limited-edition two-DVD set that includes prop flowers from the film’s wedding scene, and endcap displays in the electronics department displayed most of the tie-in products as video screens played invitations from the cast to attend Target’s midnight sale to see a preview of Breaking Dawn — Part II.
Best Buy’s “Twilight” exclusives include a Valentine’s Day sleeve for the new DVD and a steelbook case for the Blu-ray.

Projections: 'Twilight' Set to Again Rule Sales
13 Feb, 2012
By: John Latchem

Two notorious trends will come to a head the week ending Feb. 12 in a battle of past and present for the top spot.
Disney’s re-releases of its classic animated films as Blu-ray “Diamond Editions” usually take the top spot their first week in stores.
This week, however, Lady and the Tramp will have a lot of competition from the Saturday disc release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1. All “Twilight” films have debuted on disc on a Saturday, and all have topped the sales chart their first week in stores despite the short lead time.
Projected Top 3 Sellers for Week Ending 2/12/2012
1 The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1 Summit New
2 Lady and the Tramp: Diamond Edition Disney New
3 A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas Warner New
