Top 10 Best Selling Charts | Die-Screaming

Top 10 Charts

Money talks.  One of the things it tells us is what people believe to be “the best” in terms of Comic Books, Movies, Porn, and Video Games.  Every publisher and studio thinks their shit is awesome.  Ask them and they’ll tell you.  However, the real test of how well their product stacks up against the competition is how well its doing in terms of sales.  This page has been setup to allow everyone to easily see what’s selling…and what’s not.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the only place on the Internet where you can get all of this information, all in one spot.  I’ll be updating the page often and on a regular basis, so be sure to check back often.

Top 10 Movies – Box Office Sales (week of June 7 – 13)

Top Box Office Sales - Fast and Furious 6

Fast & Furious 6 is the current king of the box office

Last updated: 16 June 2013 | Chart data via Box Office Mojo Weekly Index

  1. The Purge (Universal Studios) – $43,644,850 this week | $43,644,850 total
  2. Now You See Me (Lionsgate/Summit) – $27,815,459 this week | $69,689,483 total
  3. Fast & Furious 6 (Universal Studios) - $26,954,930 this week | $210,140,625 total
  4. The Internship (Fox) - $23,951,361 this week | $23,951,361 total
  5. Epic (Fox) - $17,374,067 this week | $89,428,623 total
  6. Star Trek Into Darkness (Paramount) - $16,390,255 this week | $204,830,694 total
  7. After Earth (Sony) - $15,072,446 this week | $50,464,015 total
  8. This is the End (Sony) - $12,308,135 this week | $12,308,135 total
  9. Man of Steel (Warner Brothers) - $12,000,000 this week | $12,000,000 total
  10. The Hangover Part 3 (Warner Brothers) - $10,256,596 | $105,250,552 total

This week, The Purge was the clear winner at the box office, racking up almost $45 million in its debut.  However, you’ll notice that Man of Steel is sitting there at number nine and that’s because these numbers only account for the money earned during its midnight showing.  As we move into this next week, Man of Steel will absolutely be owning the box office.  Also, I think that This is the End will probably also have a strong week, especially as films like Now You See Me and Fast & Furious 6 start to cool off.

In terms of box office losers, it’s no surprise that the numbers for After Earth continue to look pathetic.  That film just never took off, either with critics or audiences.  At the rate it’s going, After Earth is unlikely to make more than $100 million, which is really bad because it cost about $130 million to make.  Additionally, The Hangover Part III also underperformed, barely staying in the Top 10 this week and grossing just over $100 million in total ticket sales.  Blame part of that on opening on the same weekend as Fast & Furious 6.
