Top 10:
Blu-ray revenue remained low this week, just slightly above $20 million, as a direct to Blu-ray release was the week's top-selling Blu-ray new release.
Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was that title, but it didn't sell enough copies to get to the top spot, which was still occupied by last week's 'How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World'.
A Madea Family Funeral was close behind in third place, while another new release, The Kid, was in 9th.
A couple of 4K re-releases also made the top 20 this week, including Toy Story in 10th, Toy Story 2 in 15th and Toy Story 3 in 16th.
This week's Ultra HD Blu-ray report: Other than the three 4K re-releases, only 'Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' was made available on UHD. Only 7 out of this week's top 10 had a UHD edition.

Blu-ray, Ultra HD Blu-ray Sales Share:
BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos, and Ultra HD editions). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.
'Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' had the best BD sales share out of the new releases, with a massive 81.56% of all disc sales for the title being the Blu-ray or 4K editions. It's 4K sales share was 9.08%.
The others didn't do as well, with 'The Kid' managing 42.97% and 'A Madea Family Funeral' at 26%.
