Top 10:
The Revenant was the top selling new release for the week ending 23rd April 2016, and it was also the overall best seller on Blu-ray and DVD.
It did well enough on Blu-ray to displace 'Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens' from the top spot.
In a very distant third place was the next new release, Ip Man 3.
The last new release in the top 10 was Norm of the North in 5th place.
Outside of the top 10, we have Misconduct in 11th and Fifty Shades of Black in 15th.
So while Oscar favourite 'The Revenant' was definitely an A-List release, both Blu-ray and DVD revenue dropped compared to last week and weekly Blu-ray market share dipped below 40% again.
The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *, UHD releases denoted by +):
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). 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.
Of the previously mentioned new releases, it was actually 'Misconduct' that had the best BD sales share, with 73.55%.
'The Revenant' also managed to sell better on Blu-ray than on DVD, with 52.05%, something that 'Ip Man 3' just failed to achieve with 48.38%.
'Fifty Shades of Black' got 38% and 'Norm of the North' got 36%.
None of these new releases were available on Blu-ray 3D, but 'The Revenant' was available on Ultra HD Blu-ray, with 2.30% of all packages sold containing the 4K version of the film.
