Good observation about VOD sales. A lot of box office flops like Obsessed and the fatal encounter are ending their theatrical runs early now and moving to the VOD market for additional income. It basically cuts down on the number of illegal downloads, as you can get high quality viewings from the comfort of your home not that long after the end of a particular movie stops screening, instead of crap quality films that's available for free/low price online.

 

On that point it's been a while since the VOD charts have been updated so:

WOW... Roaring Currents is just killing it. How far can it go? Is 100m+ now a lock?

I feel like the answer should be definately, but a bit like Frozen, the style of this run in unprecedented. The way it is acting now, it's going to break 1Mil admissions again on Sat and Sun to have the top 5 single days admissions of all time. This has to be impossible though and Pirates will surely dent it somewhat.

 

The current numbers would suggest even silly figures like 15M admissions are reaching lock territory. However the Korean market has a habit of legs falling off a cliff even for record breakers and crown pleasers (snowpiercer, Facereader, Frozen) all hit a point where they just plain died over about 8 days.

 

If the cliff for Torrents is next week it will plummet to a 'mere' 11M admissions or so, maybe 12. IF it stays strong through Pirates and Sea fog, it could break 15M.

Watched it twice already :) DOFP and Cap are above it for me though.

 

I am not sure should I watch GOTG again or The Purge 2 tonight!  (P.S. I watched GOTG last Thursday already, but I want to watch it again...)
