But your right about the DVD sales, they probably make up for the lost revenue at the movies. |

DVD sales generate roughly twice the box office gross. In many cases, it's far more (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery being a prime example).

I expect The Dark Knight DVD sales to go through the roof in a few weeks.

It's also why I think you'll start to see television networks greenlight multiple seasons at a time. DVD usually means that a show will catch on post-cancellation. This indicates two things: people will love shows regardless of their "ratings" while they ran and they can make boat loads of money after the run of the show.
I think the television industry has yet to catch on to that.

DVDs make it extremely obvious to people if a network is dumb. Just take AD, VM, Firefly, and countless others. They weren't viewed as mistakes by the station until the dvds were released.

I ran a search of the thread, but it came back with no responses...
Has anyone seen Transsiberian? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800241/ 92% at Rotten Tomatoes, I picked it up at Blockbuster tonight to watch with the wife over some Chinese food. Anyone? |
