Streaming Releases: Big Stars Coming to a Screen Near You
July 10, 2020
The first week of the month is usually the busiest for streaming services, so it is no surprise that this week is slower than last week. There are a few interesting items on this week’s list though, and it’s a sign of the times that some of the biggest names at the box office are in leading roles. Greyhound, the World War II action movie starring Tom Hanks, is the standout release of the weekend, and Charlize Theron, Andy Samberg, and Cate Blanchett all have new movies or shows debuting.

Will These Limited and Virtual Releases have Audiences in the Palm of Their Hands?
July 9, 2020
I am not hopeful about this weekend’s box office chances. Granted, there are some movies earning stellar reviews, but none of them have a hope of box office success. Palm Springs is the biggest and arguably best film on this week’s list, but it is also streaming on Hulu, so I expect it to go nowhere at the box office.

DEG Watched At Home Chart: Trolls Take Over Top Spot
July 9, 2020
It is clear we are in the pandemic era of the DEG Watched at Home chart, and not just because Trolls World Tour climbed into first place during its first full week on Video on Demand. This also helped Universal lead the way with five entries in the top twenty. The real sign we are in the pandemic era is lower on the chart though.

International Round Up: Box Office Suffers a Setback without Major New Releases
July 8, 2020
In sharp contrast to the US, which is facing frightening increases in confirmed COVID-19 cases, and seems far away from returning to normal, the international theatrical market has slowly been improving over the past few weeks. However, it still remains dependent on major releases in South Korea to maintain forward momentum overall. Unfortunately, with no new releases, #Alive was still the biggest movie of the weekend in Korea, and the other international markets weren’t able to make up the shortfall. There are some encouraging signs from Australia and Germany, though, and several other countries are beginning to open up more as their case counts decline.

VOD Releases: There’s a Large Gap Between Quality and Quantity
July 8, 2020
There are a ton of new releases on VOD this week. Unfortunately, most are rather weak and almost none are going to find a significant audience. The War of the Worlds is the best release, but the Criterion Collection Blu-ray is the better deal. On the other hand, Sometimes Always Never is perfect for VOD, but you have to wait until Friday to get it.

Weekend Wrap-Up: Busting Makes the Box Office Feel Good
July 7, 2020
Last week, Disney dominated the chart with re-releases. This week, it was Sony’s turn. This past weekend, Deadline has Ghostbusters earning first place with a reported weekend haul of $550,000 in 622 theaters giving it a five-day box office of $656,000. This could be a good omen for Afterlife, which may or may not come out in March. Sony also had the second place film, Jumanji: The Next Level, which added $300,000 in 220 theaters over the weekend for a total of $317.3 million so far.

New on Disc: Trolls Tower Above the Competition
July 7, 2020
Trolls World Tour is coming out on physical media this week, on all four major formats: DVD, Blu-ray, 3D, and 4K Ultra HD. However, while it is easily the biggest release of the week, it isn’t the best. There are two contenders for Pick of the Week, Murdoch Mysteries: Season 13 and The War of the Worlds: Criterion Collection. The War of the Worlds is the Pick of the Week, but Murdoch Mysteries does get the rarely-awarded Puck of the Week, for Best Canadian Release.
