Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published in Media Play News.

For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey.

We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by the Digital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.

Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.

Weekend predictions: Prey for the Devil won’t challenge Black Adam at the top

October 28th, 2022

Black Adam

After a solid $67-million opening, Black Adam will continue at the top of the box office chart this weekend, even with a steep drop in its second outing. Prey for the Devil looks likely to finish in third place this weekend, although its box office prospects may improve a little as the weekend goes on and Halloween draws closer. More...

Weekend predictions: Halloween Ends eyes $50-million opening

October 14th, 2022

Halloween Ends

After 44 years and 14 films, the Halloween franchise ends this weekend with the appropriately-titled Halloween Ends. Of course, horror franchises have a habit of rising from the grave, so the demise of the franchise is a very tentative prediction. Its box office prospects look a little clearer though, with an opening around $50 million looking very much on the cards. More...

Weekend predictions: Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile favorite going into weekend

October 7th, 2022

Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a straight up live action (with a touch of CGI) family film in theaters. Arguably the last one was Clifford the Big Red Dog, which opened with $16.6 million in November last year. Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is hoping for a debut somewhere in that ballpark this weekend, but, while it’s a strong favorite to come top of chart, our model thinks it might struggle to get there. Amsterdam provides it with some competition, but Smile is looking like the only other film that still has a shout at beating Lyle and topping the chart. More...

Weekend predictions: Smile is third film in three weeks to take a crack at a $20-million opening

September 30th, 2022

Smile

After a $19-million opening for The Woman King two weeks ago, and a $19.4-million debut for Don’t Worry, Darling last weekend, Smile is hoping to become the first film of the Fall Season to crack $20 million on opening weekend. Its chances are good, based on its Thursday previews, but it’s far from certain to hit the mark. More...

Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published in Media Play News.

For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey.

We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by the Digital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.

Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.
