  • totally OT: movie sales numbers

    Posted by Trevor Ward on July 29, 2006 at 3:38 pm

    I want to find out sales numbers for movies. Not just Box Office sales, but DVD sales included. I’m specifically looking for documentaries like Super Size Me, Born Into Brothels, etc. Anyone know where I can find that info?

    Try contacting the distributors of those titles, but I doubt that they will give out that information easily. Beware, that in Hollywood, the BoxOffice numbers can sometimes be as “creative” as the film itself. Do a google search on “DVD sales figures”, and you’ll find some interesting reading.

    also realize that if warner brothers sells 50,000 discs to blockbuster or netflicks, those count.

    This isn’t too helpful… but as an author downunder there’s the Australian Publishers and Booksellers “industry” magazine that has book sales that are quite accurate.
    I’m only suggesting that there may be a similar industry magazine, subscriber-only and not available on newsagents’ shelves, that might give you something.
    Look up “Booktrak” (or Booktrack), too for a similar thing and maybe there’s a movie equivilent.
