Hulk Rules Sales And Rentals

By Doug - October 31, 2008 - 08:18 America/Montreal

Hulk LogoHulk has destroyed the competition this week and has obtained the gold for rentals and sales. We get the following scoop from the Gamma Caves of Yahoo

“The Incredible Hulk” has painted the home video charts green, debuting at No. 1 on all three tallies.

Four weeks after its release, “Iron Man” maintained an iron-fisted hold on the charts. The summer blockbuster — like “Hulk,” based on a Marvel Comics character — finished the week as the No. 4 seller and renter, while on Blu-ray it held fast at No. 3. It remains the top-selling DVD of the year.

The Hulk rules rentals, DVD and Blu-ray sales. After the success of Iron Man’s release I don’t think this will be much of a surprise to anyone. Comic book movies are pretty popular “must own” films.

Now we wait for the Dark Knight and see what kind of damage it will do.

    I kinda figured as much. Considering the smaller box office compared to Ang Lee’s, it seemed like a lot of people were just waiting for it to come out on DVD. Hopefully this will get some bigger hype going for a sequel now.

    I want to rented on Blu-ray.

    I skipped this because the trailer did nothing for me. I didn’t think it looked good even though Tim Roth was in it…yes, Tim Roth…norton is good but Tim Roth in my opinion is one hell of an actor. I keep hearing from people that this is a good film, I’ll add it to my netflix list.

    Mr Chris, yeah I hope your right, and they do a sequel with Norton. They could even have Hulk and Abomination team up against some heavys???

    I’m not a big fan of the Hulk but I liked this movie - It seems to be the start of something quality over at Marvel and a definite move towards the new Avengers film. See Iron Man beofre you see the Hulk - There is a nice link at the end.
