Nice market share with 2012. I haven't picked it up yet, but plan on it. Nice to see that number close to 50% |

Very happy to see ponyo getting a nice share. The $10 coupon probably helped imensley. |

50 % (and above) will definetly happen this year, Avatar seems liek the most likely candidate, but i think we'll also see Iron Man 2 do 50 plus business when it hits blu later in the year |

Ponyo didn't do too bad. Glad to see it. Now Disney just needs to start putting better Japanese audio on future releases and all will be right with the world. |

Wait a minute. If Ponyo got 34% and Wild Things got 28%, how is ponyo in 3rd place behind it? |

2012 wasn't really "garbage", it wasn't shakespeare, but it also wasn't street fighter: legend of chun li bad. emerich has made much worse and less enjoyable films |

Just saw Ponyo and it was great. Completely bizarre, but great. It's absolutely beautifully crafted. Ghibli films have the amazing ability to capture a sense of adventure and freedom that's just breathtaking. |

Tristanchord85,
That's what I was wondering too at first, but I imagine that those percentages are the market share of blu-ray vs. DVD for each title. The total number of copies sold for each title is not reported, just the order: 2012 --> WTWTA --> Ponyo.
So WTWTA sold more BR copies than Ponyo, but a greater percentage of Ponyo sales were BR vs. DVD. |

Also, if WTWTA was 19.99 everywhere except for Target and Amazon (for only half a day), then I think it would of been in the mid 30% range for copies sold. |

Target had WTWTA for 19.99, unless it only applied to Los Angeles. |

I really enjoyed 2012. And I went in thinking it was going to be terrible and usually when I do that a self-fulling prophecy type deal occurs. 2012 was born for Blu! |

I haven't seen WWTA on sale anywhere... Must be sold out all over. But there's plenty of 2012 copies and special editions packing the shelves. I've bought like 6 movies in the last week, could not find any store that carried WWTA. Not at best buy, target, wal mart, fry's, nowhere. Not even a spot on the shelf. Strange. Where the wild things Aren't. |

Frankly, i thought Spirited away was more bizarre than Ponyo. Most of his movies are bizarre. But they are amazing. |
