News Stories About The Aura

DVD Releases for April 10, 2007

2007-04-09

A slow week for DVDs, both in terms of total numbers and top notch releases. Nothing really jumped out as a must have with Phantasm - Buy from Amazon being to best of a limited selection. Its appeal is too niche-market for the DVD Pick of the Week, but it is the closest we have.

Bobby's the Best on Per Theater Chart

2006-11-21

Bobby finished on top of the Per Theater Chart this weekend after taking in nearly $70,000 in two theaters for an average of $34,520. That was more than $10,000 above its nearest competition, Volver, which pulled in an average of $24,095 during its third week of release. For Your Consideration placed third on the charts with an average of $16,174, which is a really good start, but still well below the average opening for Christopher Guest's previous mockumentaries. In fourth was the first of two wide release to top $10,000 as Casino Royale scored a very impressive $11,891 in 3,434 theaters. The re-release of Two or Three Things I Know About Her earned $11,214 in its lone theater, while Flannel Pajamas brought in $11,069, also in one theater. Finally we have the overall box office champ, Happy Feet, with an average of $10,918.

However, not one managed to live up to expectations with the critics and that doesn't bode very well for the weekend as a whole.
