On every VOD chart, Ryan Reynolds was #1 and “The Addams Family 2” was #2. At Netflix, Jake Gyllenhaal thriller “The Guilty” ruled.<\/p>\n

\nFox\/Disney<\/p>\n
\u201cFree Guy\u201d (Disney\/$19.99) is now on Premium VOD after a 45-day window, \u201cThe Addams Family 2\u201d (United Artists\/$19.99) is new at theaters and on PVOD, and even though it will be weeks before box-office champion \u201cVenom: Let There Be Carnage\u201d (Sony) makes its PVOD debut, it\u2019s already making itself known on the charts. The platforms\u2019 uneasy relationship continues to evolve.<\/p>\n
It was a great weekend for theaters with \u201cCarnage\u201d taking in $90 million domestic, a success hinted by strong VOD showings the week prior with the 2018 \u201cVenom\u201d (Sony). However, last week also saw the nearly unprecedented offer (on all platforms) to pre-buy the sequel on PVOD at a date unspecified. iTunes placed it at #6, even though it cannot be rented. Presume more confusion for moviegoers.<\/p>\n
Meantime, the reduced-price franchise starter is #3 at both iTunes and Google Play. \u201cF9\u201d (Universal\/$5.99), #3 or #4 on all charts, joins \u201cFree Guy\u201d and \u201cAddams\u201d as the sole titles placing on all three.<\/p>\n
\u201cFree Guy\u201d debuted on PVOD last Tuesday and dominated home viewing for the week, even holding off the day-and-date October 1 debut of the \u201cAddams\u201d sequel. The animated film was #2 in theaters, scoring a higher than anticipated $18 million gross along with an unknown but likely significant amount of PVOD revenue. \u201cFree Guy\u201d held the #6 spot in ticket sales on its eighth weekend.<\/p>\n
“The Card Counter”<\/p>\n
Focus Features<\/p>\n
Paul Schrader\u2019s \u201cThe Card Counter\u201d (Focus\/$19.99) is on PVOD after three weeks in theaters. Its initial impact was limited to a #8 spot at iTunes, but its Friday release might have kept it from placing on the full-week Vudu list or on Google Play, which is often slower to react.<\/p>\n
Director Antoine Fuqua adds Netflix to his long list of successes with \u201cThe Guilty.\u201d With Jake Gyllenhaal taking the role of a 911 operator in this remake of a well-received Danish thriller, it\u2019s second only to Korean phenomenon \u201cSquid Game.\u201d Netflix original documentary \u201cBritney vs. Spears\u201d took the top spot midweek, but has fallen to #5. Animated original \u201cMy Little Pony\u201d has been in the top three all week, while last week\u2019s #1 \u201cThe Starling\u201d with Melissa McCarthy and Chris O\u2019Dowd has already dropped to #8.<\/p>\n
