Barbie and Her Sisters in The Great Puppy Adventure Top 20 Nielsen VideoScan First Alert chart for the week ended 11/08/15:ġ3. Arnold is editorial director of Home Media Magazine. Rounding out the top five was "Inside Out." Twentieth Century Fox's "Spy," the previous week's top rental, slipped to No. On the Blu-ray Disc, Walt Disney's "Aladdin" held onto the No. Rounding out the top five on the overall disc sales chart was Warner's "Max," a film about a loyal war dog that bowed at No. 5 on the Blu-ray Disc sales chart after debuting the prior week at No. 4 on the overall disc sales chart and No. The film is a belated sequel to the original 1983 National Lampoon's "Vacation." The film racked up a domestic gross of $59 million, just a few million dollars less than the original. 3 on both Nielsen VideoScan's overall disc sales chart and the dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart.
theaters, were so strong that consumers bought nearly five times as many copies of the film as they did of "Jurassic World" in its third week of release, Nielsen data shows.Īnother new release, the comedy "Vacation," from Warner Bros., debuted at No. Sales of "Inside Out," which grossed $356 million in U.S. 2 spot after two weeks as the country's top-selling Blu-ray Disc and DVD. 8, bumping Universal Pictures' "Jurassic World" to the No.
1 on both national home video sales charts for the week ending Nov. The firesale will probably dampen an otherwise 70%+ Spiderman release week.Walt Disney Studios' "Inside Out," the latest animated adventure from Pixar, debuted at No. Getting back to what the thread actually intends. I am actually interested as to what is included and how the information is collected. Honestly, the last two dozen posts need to be moved to a thread concerning the validity of Nielsen's methodology. It appears to be the best of what we have. Or are you suggesting that Paramount and Universal think Nielsen/Videoscan is biased? If they do this is the first I've heard of it. Although it works in the short term, when retailers return all unsold product is where you see problems.įor some reason I doubt all the stuidos would put their faith in these numbers if they leaned towards any agenda by any party. If Universal for instance uses Nielsen's numbers in their public statements when Shrek 3 is released when they know the numbers are inaccurate then are they not in the same boat.lying to inflate their numbers to raise the value of their stock. Basically, exactly what I said about Shrek 2 above. If nielsen/Videoscan is actually wrong as you suggest (and even worse you think $$ can sway their numbers) then wouldn't any stuidos using their numbers create a situation where they are "fudging numbers that will affect their stock in a falsely inflated way". Being in accounting hell with the Government is not a positive for their business. But I also know that the studios for the most part (with the exception of Paramount-Transformers) can’t afford to fudge numbers that will affect their stock in a falsely inflated way. I do believe that a 3rd party should be involved to collect the data.
NIELSON VIDEOSCAN TV
If Nielsen/VideoScan numbers are basically wrong why are stuidos using their numbers when talking to the press? The only time it's been really off is this whole Transformer thing.Īs ikbradley so eloquently noticed, I am just keeping a critical eye to the Nielsen ratings and was only questioning their overall company historicals, rather it be in TV or digital media. I don't want to start relying on Stuidos to tell me how much product they shipped to retailers (which is something Universal did years ago with Shrek 2.or was it the first one). Just like MS was releasing SHIPPED numbers for X360, not sold. Numbers released from stuidos can have that typical "spin". Honestly I would rather a 3rd party release real data than numbers thrown out by the stuidos. Call me confused Flux but why do you care so much about proving Nielsen/VideoScan is inaccurate?Īre you saying because Paramount said they sold 100k Transformers the first day and 190k for the week we should believe them instead of Nielsen/VideoScan saying it was 115k for the week?
