Nice! It sat at number 11 for a while there, I didn't know if it would have the legs to break the top 10. #9 is mighty fine.

YES...it deserves it. A truly amazing production. I had no idea the hottest title this year would be a James Bond flick and a Documentary.

And even better kudos go to the HD DVD supporters whether they be exclusive or neutral that have supported this platform and shown the studios that we as consumers are savvy enough to make our own decisions.

In the last few weeks you all have shown that you do have power and that good content sells well.

It was at #11 when I checked this thread.

It's now back at #9 ;)

For a $70 set that is pretty impressive.

now it just needs to get to #7 to match Casino Royale's highest-ever ranking.

Mspeed6 said when it breaks #9 - it is currently at #9 - whoever still has to order it, please do so today. I want to see a broken PS3:

I should have held out to order it today, but my GC was expiring a couple weeks ago. As Capek said, pretty impressive that a $70 nature documentary cracks the top 10.

My wife DVR'd Planet Earth and my 5 year old daughter and I watched the Ocean one last night and she really liked it. I placed my order for the HD-DVD today.

This just goes to show that all HD DVD needed was some new content. I think you will see the Matrix jump way up again also when it gets closer to release.

Quite impressive, I didn't think it'd manage to crack the top 10. Glad my order helped! How high did Casino Royale get on Amazon?

I guess this proves that the matrix boxsets will sell like crazy.

I think Casino Royale got as high as 7.

Looks like you bumped it up to #8. :D

I was just on the Planet Earth HD DVD page at Amazon, and it said #8.

I guess that means that the guy who said he destroy his PS3 on Youtube if any HD DVD spiked to 8 now has to put up or shut up.

And, I haven't yet put my order for today in yet, which will include Planet Earth!!
