Last week, both Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows and Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance were released on DVD/Blu-Ray. The former grossed $187.6 million domestically (just short of the original film's gross), while the latter grossed an unimpressive $51.8 million (less than half of what the first film made). Via The Hollywood Reporter, it's been confirmed that A Game Of Shadows has debuted to the top spot on the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert chart. Spirit Of Vengeance, on the other hand, debuted at #3 on the chart (despite a #1 debut on Home Media Magazine’s weekly rental chart), with Shadows beating it to a 5-1 ratio. 20th Century Fox’s Act Of Valor held the #2 spot, while Safe House and John Carter (which was #1 last week) were down to #4 and #, respectively.
No precise numbers are currently available, but this should be good news to Warner Bros. (the studio has been interested in making a third film in the Sherlock Holmes franchise). Which movie(s) will you be picking up this week?
