For the week that ended on September 15th, Warner Home Entertainment's
Ocean's 8 debuted at number one on the Blu-ray-only and overall package-media charts. A female-centric installment in the
Ocean's 11 franchise, this light heist-comedy was a modest success this summer. The film scored decent critical notices (it has a
61% Metacritic score), and it went on to
gross over $139 million domestically on top of its estimated $70-million production budget. This week, the film had a Blu-ray market share of 50%.
Next up on the Blu-ray-only and overall package-media sales rankings was Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment's
Deadpool 2. The much-anticipated follow-up to Tim Miller and Ryan Reynolds'
2016 smash hit, this raunchy action-comedy proved almost as successful as its predecessor.
Deadpool 2 garnered fine critical notices (note its
66% Metacritic score) and
grossed over $734 million worldwide on top of its estimated $110-million production budget.
Deadpool 2 had a good HD market share of 64% and sold 81% as many Blu-rays and 63% as many total units as
Ocean's 8.
Finally, Marvel and Walt Disney Home Entertainment's
Avengers: Infinity War rounded out the top three on the Blu-ray-only and overall package-media sales lists. This third entry in the joint
The Avengers series - and the most narratively consequential MCU feature of 2018 -
Infinity War has proven to be one of the year's biggest successes. After receiving decent critical notices (a
68% score on Metacritic), the film then went on to
gross over $2 billion worldwide on top of its massive estimated production budget (somewhere in the realm of $315-to-$400 million).
Infinity War had a solid HD market share of 64% and sold 75% as many Blu-rays and 58% as many total units as the
Ocean's sequel.
