Theater counts: Those Who Wish Me Dead remains the widest release

May 20th, 2021

Those Who Wish Me Dead

The top three films in theaters this week are somewhat of an anomaly in terms of their box office results versus their theater counts. The widest release of the week is Warner Bros.’, Those Who Wish Me Dead, which opened in 3,188 locations, and likely play in something similar this weekend, but took in the least at the box office ($2.83 million).

December 6th, 2012

While Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and gone, there are still plenty of shopping days from now till Christmas. Like every year, we have a Holiday Gift Guide, starting with Part I, which focused on first run releases and franchise box sets. Part II focuses on TV on DVD releases. Like years past, we will be focusing on TV on DVD releases for shows making their debut on the home market, or for full season sets. That's not to say those are the only shows worth buying as gifts, but if you know someone who loved Futurama, then you don't need me to tell you Volume 7 would make a good gift or not. The number of really good TV series that made their debut this year is bigger than last year, including some that were so good they dominated Awards Season. The best of these was... More...
