'Kingdom' takes crown on DVD sales, rental charts
Wednesday October 19 8:25 PM ET
"Kingdom of Heaven" did on DVD what it couldn't do at the boxoffice: It became a smash hit.
The Ridley Scott-helmed epic about the Crusades, which grossed less than $48 million in its domestic theatrical release against a budget estimated at $130 million, topped both the DVD sales and rental charts its first week out.
The 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment release won an easy victory on VideoScan's First Alert sales chart for the week ending October 16, beating several other new mid-range theatricals -- including Universal's Will Ferrell-starring comedy "Kicking & Screaming," which fared better at the boxoffice but debuted at No. 6 on the preliminary national sales chart.
"Kingdom of Heaven" also opened with a bang on Home Media Retailing's rental chart for the week ending October 16, sliding into No. 1 with estimated rental earnings of $10.1 million, or 21.2 percent of its total theatrical take.
Other new theatrical releases that hit the chart in their first week in stores are Warner's "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" (No. 5 sales, No. 3 rental) and Universal's Jet Li actioner "Unleashed" (No. 3 sales, No. 16 rental).
Buena Vista's "Cinderella" remained an exceptionally strong seller its second week out, hanging on to the No. 2 spot on the DVD sales chart.
Two newly released TV DVD compilations also made the top 20 First Alert: "South Park: The Complete Sixth Season," from Paramount, debuted at No. 10, and Fox's "Arrested Development: Season Two" bowed at No. 12.
