Great win for BD, not quite the pummeling we were lead to expect from all the BD releases this week though.

JeffY · 10-12-07, 01:49 PM

I was one off, over estimated Blu Ray again.

iontyre · 10-12-07, 01:51 PM

Not a good week for HD, but something is about to 'transform'...

Transformers won't show up on the Neilsen numbers for 2 more weeks. Next week will likely be similar to this week.

JeffY · 10-12-07, 01:53 PM

I recon Fantastic four did about the same as Knocked up last week.

briankmonkey · 10-12-07, 01:55 PM

I was way off. I thought Top Gun would do much better than that.

Another dominating week for blu.

tvted · 10-12-07, 01:55 PM

Looks like a trend.

Well it had a similar effect but I think it sold more. For comparison FF2 sold 12x as much as 300 on HD-DVD while last week Knocked Up sold 7x as much as 300 on HD-DVD.

Everdog · 10-12-07, 01:56 PM

Very interesting. A week where all the big releases were on the Blu side and they still only made it to 68. FF is an action film, non-comedy, comic book, etc film. It fits in every category that does well on HDM.

I guess my prediction last month may hold that Blu-Ray will never get above 70% again.

The chart for folks who prefer the visual.

For people who are surprised by 68:32, I would be curious as to why you would be surprised. I know one HD DVD supporter claimed the trend was clear and guessed 51:49, but that seemed to ignore the reasons behind the numbers. High profile day-and-dates have a big effect and this week wasn't any different. FF2:ROTSS may not have gotten good reviews and didn't have a great followthrough after a big opening weekend, but it was still bound to move the numbers in Blu-ray's direction, even if the degree was open.

Transformers is a huge title (I said that before Paramount switched) and it will be interesting to see if it can do a 32:68 week for HD DVD. I think HD DVD should win that week, but 32:68 or better for HD DVD would be very good.

No real surprises here. Looks like a slow week.

Yet, not as dominating as it should have been. Correct?
