This was an interesting read through. Hopefully this is a reoccurring thing.

We don’t have the tools to make detailed assessments of VOD performance. However, we do have data of value. We looked at the charts made available Sunday morning from three major VOD providers:iTunes,Amazon Prime, and Spectrum Cable, as well as Netflix’s own chart (which includes all programming, not just feature films). They all have top 10 lists (and further rankings, except Netflix).

Several major caveats: All but Spectrum seem to change daily, so take this as a snapshot. None provide actual numbers of rentals. And since they reflect all releases, irrespective of price, it’s not a clear reflection of revenue.

iTunes

1. Onward (Disney)
2. Jumanji: The Next Level (Sony)
3. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (Disney)
4. Contagion (Warner Bros.)
5. Knives Out (Lionsgate)
6. Spies in Disguise (20th Century Fox)
7. Bombshell (Lionsgate)
8. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Sony)
9. Ford v Ferrari (20th Century Fox)
10. 1917 (Universal)

Amazon

1. Jumanji: The Next Level (Sony)
2. Knives Out (Lionsgate)
3. Bombshell (Lionsgate)
4. Midway (Lionsgate)
5. Uncut Gems (A24)
6. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (Disney)
7. The Greatest Showman (20th Century Fox)
8. Onward (Disney)
9. Frozen II (Disney)
10. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Sony)

Spectrum

1. Bombshell (Lionsgate)
2. Frozen II (Disney)
3. Knives Out (Lionsgate)
4. Jumanji: The Next Level (Sony)

6. Uncut Gems (A24)
7. Ford v Ferrari (20th Century Fox)
8. Midway (Lionsgate)
9. Dark Waters (Focus)
10. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Sony)

Netflix

1. Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C.J. Walker (limited series)
2. All American (episodic series)
3. Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness (limited series)
4. Spenser Confidential (feature film)
5. Love Is Blind (episodic series)
6. 2012 (feature film)
7. Pandemic (episodic series)
8. 100 Humans. Life’s Questions. Answered (episodic series)
9. Boss Baby: Back in Business (episodic series)
10. On My Block (episodic series)

At least looking at Apple and Amazon, those lists have changed a littlebit.

As of 12AM EST, Invisible Man got into the top 10, 1917 got kicked out, and Spies in Disguise moved down a few numbers. With Amazon, Uncut Gems and Rise of Skywalker switched places.

You should watch For All Mankind.

I don't think mankind needs me to watch The Morning Show and Snoopy in Space.

Gal Gadot getting a bit of bad press right now.

Likely to be forgotten by the time this movie comes out, whenever that may be, but you never know.

I don't think anyone is calling her a bad person or anything, just tone deaf. If it ever gets worse than that, there will likely be backlash against the backlash, so for now I'll guess no real negative effect on WW84.

Nobody will care about that Imagine cover two weeks from now

In other side of world.

That seems like a decent strategy for the US. I could see something where when theaters start to come back, they'll just play stuff like Endgame, Joker, Parasite, and maybe Onward, since people aren't going to head out to theaters right away. Hey, maybe Downton Abbey and Addams Family can finally get to 100M.

Sent Jakey my list. It has a whole bunch of movies that only I like, and movies I love way too much that nobody else loves as much. I wanted to get around to see more, especially other people's FYC, but I got lazy and outside circ*mstances have stressed me out and clouded my head way too much for me to even focus on movies. Whatever. I still like what I sent in.

release it in three months when they’ve got other tentpoles scheduled? Let alone another Pixar film in Soul!! Idon’t see it.

Will they really make more money putting it up for rent than on Disney Plus? I’m not convinced. I don’t think millions will hand over $20 to rent it for 48 hours, but they would hand over $6 to subscribe to Disney+ to see it. Disney would prefer the latter surely??

It cuts out a huge part of the piracy problem as well.

That implies that Soul will not be delayed.

The big issue with your theory is the movie's audience. The vast majority of people who were going to see Onward are Disney fans who likely already have Disney+, and this isn't some mega blockbuster or massively hyped release that would make people on the fence about Disney+ want to get it. I'm sure maybe a few people will sign up, but I doubt it would be that much.

And again, $20 for a family of 4 really isn'tthatexpensive, especially families inbig cities.

$20 price for rental is pretty insane though? I mean movie theaters are also rentals since you only watch once but tickets are like $8 or something.

In a lot of areas, it's way more than that. Matinee tickets only go up to $10 here, and cost about $13-15 past 4PM. $20 rental isn't that far off from what evening tickets here cost.

And if people are stuck at home with other people, that makes the $20 pricetag easier to swallow.

And of course, in a few months, they'll drop down the rental price. This is basically just for people who want to see a movie first thing.

I think within the next few years the 90 day release window will be eliminated or adjusted. The model going forward will be something like this.....

Disney will releaseThor: Love and Thunder day and date on Disney+ (and possibly other services like Vudu, Amazon)and in theaters. Disney+ subscribers and other streaming platformscan pay an extra $25 to see it immediately. If they choose not to, they can wait however many months Disney chooses to put it on the streaming platform as part of the regular cost. The movie will also be released in theaters for a normal ticket price.
