The good news is “Godzilla vs. Kong” is thriving on PVOD at $19.99. The bad news is an awful lot of people don’t seem to be aware of the value of HBO Max, where it costs $14.99 for one month and allowed customers to see the same film in March. It suggests an ongoing marketing issue and, at the start of 2022, there will be another challenge when HBO Max customers realize that Warner Bros. titles no longer play day and date with theaters.
“The Marksman” with Liam Neeson remains #1 at GooglePlay at standard VOD cost, close behind “Godzilla” in overall placement. These two were joined by “Raya and the Last Dragon,” reduced to $19.99, and “Little Things.” Related ‘Glass Onion’ and Christmas-Themed Titles Dominate VOD and Netflix Charts Four Originals Debut in Netflix Top Ten – but Not ‘Bardo’ Related Oscars 2023: Best Original Score Predictions Oscars 2023: Best Sound PredictionsAustralian-made “The Dry” with Eric Bana took the #1 position at Apple TV/iTunes. Elsewhere, it charted below the top 10. Even more impressive is “Four Good Days” from veteran director Rodrigo Garcia, which placed on all four charts, ranking as high as #2 at $6.99. This is the second week for the opiate withdrawal title starring Glenn Close and Mila Kunis. “Riders of Justice” from Danish director Anders Thomas Jensen, previously part of the Dogme movement, placed on two charts, including #5 at Apple TV/ITunes. Starring Mads Mikkelsen as a man who pursues justice after his wife dies, the Danish-language film is seeing a better performance than Mikkelsen’s recent lead in the Oscar-winning “Another Round.” “Tom & Jerry,” still PVOD after three months, and “Nobody,” now standard price, made three charts. The other new entry this week is D.C. Comics’ animated “Justice Society: World War II,’ which took #10 at Vudu. ©Netflix/Courtesy Everett Collection Unsurprisingly, Zack Snyder’s “Army of the Dead” is an immediate #1 at Netflix after one week in theaters. Through Sunday, it grossed somewhere over $1 million. “Woman in the Window” slipped to second, still strong, and Sony Animation’s “The Millers vs. the Machines” still ranks high after an extended stay at #1.
