Come on, Sequel!

[MR. ELIMINATOR]

a rough idea of the sales would have been cool. Didn't expect looper to get in the top 10.

[hazy efc]

That just goes to show how great Dredd is because that top 10 has some big names on it.

That's quite significant if you think that I reckon if you asked the 'man on the street' which of those films he's heard of, I bet 9 out of 10 would have heard of all of them except Dredd and maybe Looper.

It sold more DVDs than Dredd. Most of Dredd's sales were blu-ray.

[MR. ELIMINATOR]

It did? Guess most of Dredd's sales were Blu-ray though?

Still, thought Dredd would be a bit higher though, I was under the impression it was doing unprecedented business on the home video.

'Unprecedented' would make it number 1. As it is Skyfall sold around 3 million units; Dredd would be more like 400,000-500,000.

Pretty sure most people have heard of the film... it has been in every supermarket, it was on TV quite a bit and it was in trailers at other films. So the 'man on the street' will almost certainly have heard of it.

I think you've misinterpreted - Dredd is doing incredibly well on home video RELATIVE to how poorly it did at the box office. The fact that - at least in the UK - it's holding its own against films that made many times more money than it did at the cinema is great news.
