dark night will take these numbers down.

This title and Dark Knight should really move the format forward and give a big boost for 2009.

+1 As nice as that is for Iron Man, it will be forgotten in December when TDK comes out. But still, glad to see it selling so well. I REALLY liked this movie!

Iron Man had many BLu copies out there. I have mine. Dark knight is going to shatter records. I think BLu is going to do well this year.

Dark Knight will probably pass IronMan...However, it's a good deal for blu-ray. More people are adapting to the format which means even more releases. We already have the Godfather....it's only a matter of time before George Lucas gets the picture.

This movie was not as good as the hype.. The Dark Knight will top this easily.

This isn't such a big surprise. There's no doubt that Iron Man, together with Indiana Jones-Crystal Skull and Dark Knight will be the top best sellers before the year is out.

Hopefully we'll soon receive an official tally from Paramount, given they were quick to announce sales numbers for that other format.

This good news. The more records shattered and more sales climb, Blu will get recognition the format should get.

That means it's already moved over 400,000 units if he's talking about total unit records.

Bought this 1st day, on Dark Knight I will wait till it comes down in price.With all the copies DK will sell it will be a bargain very soon in December.
