Blu-ray Sales: February 27-March 6: The Croods: A New Age Hunts Down Monster Hunter

Posted March 12, 2021 02:04 PM by Sean Greenwood

For the week that ended on March 6th, Universal Pictures Home Entertainment's The Croods: A New Age again topped both the Blu-ray-only and overall packaged media charts. The DreamWorks animated sequel, in which the prehistoric family come up against the Bettermans, an apparently more evolved family, was theatrically released over the Thanksgiving holiday and became one of the few bright spots of 2020, so far making over $157 million worldwide. This week, The Croods: A New Age had an HD share of 52%, with 5% of units sold from the 4K UHD format.

In second place on both charts is a new release, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment's Monster Hunter. The film adaptation of the long-running Capcom video game series was shot in late 2018 and originally set for a 2020 theatrical release, but it was rescheduled several times due to the coronavirus pandemic. Ultimately, Monster Hunter was released theatrically on December 18th, 2020 and made just over $14 million domestically and $28 million worldwide. This week, Monster Hunter sold 85% as many units as The Croods: A New Age, with an HD share of 64% and 22% of units sold from the 4K UHD format.

Dropping to third place on both charts is Universal Pictures Home Entertainment's The Croods: 2-Movie Collection, which collects both The Croods: A New Age and its 2013 predecessor, The Croods. This week, The Croods: 2-Movie Collection sold 15% as many units as The Croods: A New Age, with an HD share of 49%.
