Juno Smile Chipmunks Sad

After a surprising box office success, ‘Juno’ is generating some heat in the DVD stores too. Getting in at the top spot, it beat last week’s ‘Alvin and the Chipmunks’ in the sales department. Alvin slipped to number three, with ‘Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem’ coming in second.

But the pregnant girl didn’t stop there. ‘There will be Blood,’ which came in first last week, lost its top stop to ‘Juno’ too. ‘There will be Blood’ went on to make more in rentals than it did at the box office. It made the third place with $15.6 million in rentals in two weeks, followed by ‘Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem’ with $7.7 million. ‘Juno’ managed to top that, with just $8.4 million.

Alvin and the Chipmunks There Will Be Blood

Just like in the theaters (grossing over $200 million), ‘Alvin and the Chipmunks’ is again showing its box office power. For the second week in a row it was the number one DVD seller.

But it didn’t make the first place for the rentals. Bringing in a fast $8.5 million, ‘There Will Be Blood’ was the most rented movie last week. That’s almost 1/4 of what it did in the theaters, where it only made about $40 million.

‘Alvin and the Chipmunks’ came in second with $7.2 million, followed by ‘Lions for Lambs’ with $6.8 million.

In High-Definition land, ‘I am Legend’ was the number one seller. Since the amount of cash it made probably wasn’t impressive, no number was given for this title.
