Before the onslaught that is The Dark Knight on Home Video, Prince Caspian managed to pull of the top spot on the DVD sales chart. This bodes well, and I hope that we continue to see strong sales throughout the holiday season and beyond.
The Blu-ray, however, didn’t top the charts. It sold one copy for every two that Wanted sold on Blu-ray. Wanted was the other big release this week and had sold 90% of the number of DVDs that Prince Caspian had sold. This doesn’t come as a big surprise though, as Blu-ray is mostly still in the early adoption phase, meaning that most owners will be into a film like Wanted, while families with children are probably not as likely to have a Blu-ray player at this point.
The Dark Knight has been released this week, and I feel it is a guaranteed top seller, and analysts are saying that it has the potential to be the first Blu-ray to sell through a million copies.
I’m going to be writing my review of the Blu-ray as soon as I can. I’m just busy at the moment with the new website.
